The Proverbs
CHAPTER 1
Proverbs 1:1
1 The proverbs of Solomon the son of David, king of Israel; Proverbs 1:2
2 To know wisdom and instruction; to perceive the words of understanding;
Proverbs 1:3
3 To receive the instruction of wisdom, justice, and judgment, and equity;
Proverbs 1:4
4 To give subtilty to the simple, to the young man knowledge and discretion.
Proverbs 1:5
5 A wise man will hear, and will increase learning; and a man of understanding
shall attain unto wise counsels: Proverbs 1:6
6 To understand a proverb, and the interpretation; the words of the wise, and
their dark sayings.
Proverbs 1:7
7 The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge: but fools despise wisdom
and instruction.
Proverbs 1:8
8 My son, hear the instruction of thy father, and forsake not the law of thy
mother:
Proverbs 1:9
9 For they shall be an ornament of grace unto thy head, and chains about thy
neck.
Proverbs 1:10
10 My son, if sinners entice thee, consent thou not. Proverbs 1:11
11 If they say, Come with us, let us lay wait for blood, let us lurk privily
for the innocent without cause:
Proverbs 1:12
12 Let us swallow them up alive as the grave; and whole, as those that go down
into the pit:
Proverbs 1:13
13 We shall find all precious substance, we shall fill our houses with spoil:
Proverbs 1:14
14 Cast in thy lot among us; let us all have one purse: Proverbs 1:15
15 My son, walk not thou in the way with them; refrain thy foot from their
path:
Proverbs 1:16
16 For their feet run to evil, and make haste to shed blood. Proverbs 1:17
17 Surely in vain the net is spread in the sight of any bird. Proverbs 1:18
18 And they lay wait for their own blood; they lurk privily for their own
lives.
Proverbs 1:19
19 So are the ways of every one that is greedy of gain; which taketh away the
life of the owners thereof.
Proverbs 1:20
20 Wisdom crieth without; she uttereth her voice in the streets: Proverbs 1:21
21 She crieth in the chief place of concourse, in the openings of the gates: in
the city she uttereth her words, saying, Proverbs 1:22
22 How long, ye simple ones, will ye love simplicity? and the scorners delight
in their scorning, and fools hate knowledge? Proverbs 1:23
23 Turn you at my reproof: behold, I will pour out my spirit unto you, I will
make known my words unto you.
Proverbs 1:24
24 Because I have called, and ye refused; I have stretched out my hand, and no
man regarded;
Proverbs 1:25
25 But ye have set at nought all my counsel, and would none of my reproof:
Proverbs 1:26
26 I also will laugh at your calamity; I will mock when your fear cometh;
Proverbs 1:27
27 When your fear cometh as desolation, and your destruction cometh as a
whirlwind; when distress and anguish cometh upon you. Proverbs 1:28
28 Then shall they call upon me, but I will not answer; they shall seek me
early, but they shall not find me:
Proverbs 1:29
29 For that they hated knowledge, and did not choose the fear of the LORD:
Proverbs 1:30
30 They would none of my counsel: they despised all my reproof. Proverbs 1:31
31 Therefore shall they eat of the fruit of their own way, and be filled with
their own devices.
Proverbs 1:32
32 For the turning away of the simple shall slay them, and the prosperity of
fools shall destroy them.
Proverbs 1:33
33 But whoso hearkeneth unto me shall dwell safely, and shall be quiet from
fear of evil.
CHAPTER 2
Proverbs 2:1
1 My son, if thou wilt receive my words, and hide my commandments with thee;
Proverbs 2:2
2 So that thou incline thine ear unto wisdom, and apply thine heart to
understanding;
Proverbs 2:3
3 Yea, if thou criest after knowledge, and liftest up thy voice for
understanding;
Proverbs 2:4
4 If thou seekest her as silver, and searchest for her as for hid treasures;
Proverbs 2:5
5 Then shalt thou understand the fear of the LORD, and find the knowledge of
God.
Proverbs 2:6
6 For the LORD giveth wisdom: out of his mouth cometh knowledge and
understanding.
Proverbs 2:7
7 He layeth up sound wisdom for the righteous: he is a buckler to them that
walk uprightly.
Proverbs 2:8
8 He keepeth the paths of judgment, and preserveth the way of his saints.
Proverbs 2:9
9 Then shalt thou understand righteousness, and judgment, and equity; yea,
every good path.
Proverbs 2:10
10 When wisdom entereth into thine heart, and knowledge is pleasant unto thy
soul;
Proverbs 2:11
11 Discretion shall preserve thee, understanding shall keep thee: Proverbs 2:12
12 To deliver thee from the way of the evil man, from the man that speaketh
froward things;
Proverbs 2:13
13 Who leave the paths of uprightness, to walk in the ways of darkness;
Proverbs 2:14
14 Who rejoice to do evil, and delight in the frowardness of the wicked;
Proverbs 2:15
15 Whose ways are crooked, and they froward in their paths: Proverbs 2:16
16 To deliver thee from the strange woman, even from the stranger which
flattereth with her words;
Proverbs 2:17
17 Which forsaketh the guide of her youth, and forgetteth the covenant of her
God.
Proverbs 2:18
18 For her house inclineth unto death, and her paths unto the dead. Proverbs
2:19
19 None that go unto her return again, neither take they hold of the paths of
life.
Proverbs 2:20
20 That thou mayest walk in the way of good men, and keep the paths of the
righteous.
Proverbs 2:21
21 For the upright shall dwell in the land, and the perfect shall remain in it.
Proverbs 2:22
22 But the wicked shall be cut off from the earth, and the transgressors shall
be rooted out of it.
CHAPTER 3
Proverbs 3:1
1 My son, forget not my law; but let thine heart keep my commandments: Proverbs
3:2
2 For length of days, and long life, and peace, shall they add to thee.
Proverbs 3:3
3 Let not mercy and truth forsake thee: bind them about thy neck; write them
upon the table of thine heart:
Proverbs 3:4
4 So shalt thou find favour and good understanding in the sight of God and man.
Proverbs 3:5
5 Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own
understanding.
Proverbs 3:6
6 In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths. Proverbs 3:7
7 Be not wise in thine own eyes: fear the LORD, and depart from evil. Proverbs
3:8
8 It shall be health to thy navel, and marrow to thy bones. Proverbs 3:9
9 Honour the LORD with thy substance, and with the firstfruits of all thine
increase:
Proverbs 3:10
10 So shall thy barns be filled with plenty, and thy presses shall burst out
with new wine.
Proverbs 3:11
11 My son, despise not the chastening of the LORD; neither be weary of his
correction:
Proverbs 3:12
12 For whom the LORD loveth he correcteth; even as a father the son in whom he
delighteth.
Proverbs 3:13
13 Happy is the man that findeth wisdom, and the man that getteth
understanding.
Proverbs 3:14
14 For the merchandise of it is better than the merchandise of silver, and the
gain thereof than fine gold.
Proverbs 3:15
15 She is more precious than rubies: and all the things thou canst desire are
not to be compared unto her.
Proverbs 3:16
16 Length of days is in her right hand; and in her left hand riches and honour.
Proverbs 3:17
17 Her ways are ways of pleasantness, and all her paths are peace. Proverbs
3:18
18 She is a tree of life to them that lay hold upon her: and happy is every one
that retaineth her.
Proverbs 3:19
19 The LORD by wisdom hath founded the earth; by understanding hath he
established the heavens.
Proverbs 3:20
20 By his knowledge the depths are broken up, and the clouds drop down the dew.
Proverbs 3:21
21 My son, let not them depart from thine eyes: keep sound wisdom and
discretion:
Proverbs 3:22
22 So shall they be life unto thy soul, and grace to thy neck. Proverbs 3:23
23 Then shalt thou walk in thy way safely, and thy foot shall not stumble.
Proverbs 3:24
24 When thou liest down, thou shalt not be afraid: yea, thou shalt lie down,
and thy sleep shall be sweet.
Proverbs 3:25
25 Be not afraid of sudden fear, neither of the desolation of the wicked, when
it cometh.
Proverbs 3:26
26 For the LORD shall be thy confidence, and shall keep thy foot from being
taken.
Proverbs 3:27
27 Withhold not good from them to whom it is due, when it is in the power of
thine hand to do it.
Proverbs 3:28
28 Say not unto thy neighbour, Go, and come again, and to morrow I will give;
when thou hast it by thee.
Proverbs 3:29
29 Devise not evil against thy neighbour, seeing he dwelleth securely by thee.
Proverbs 3:30
30 Strive not with a man without cause, if he have done thee no harm. Proverbs
3:31
31 Envy thou not the oppressor, and choose none of his ways. Proverbs 3:32
32 For the froward is abomination to the LORD: but his secret is with the
righteous.
Proverbs 3:33
33 The curse of the LORD is in the house of the wicked: but he blesseth the
habitation of the just.
Proverbs 3:34
34 Surely he scorneth the scorners: but he giveth grace unto the lowly.
Proverbs 3:35
35 The wise shall inherit glory: but shame shall be the promotion of fools.
