Proverbs 24
1 May not you be jealous of people of evil and may not (you desire *Q(k)*) to be with them.
Don’t be envious of evil men; neither desire to be with them:
2 For violence it plots heart their and trouble lips their they speak.
for their hearts plot violence, and their lips talk about mischief.
3 By wisdom it is built a house and by understanding it is established.
Through wisdom a house is built; by understanding it is established;
4 And by knowledge rooms they are filled all wealth precious and pleasant.
by knowledge the rooms are filled with all rare and beautiful treasure.
5 A man wise [who is] in strength and a person of knowledge [is] making firm strength.
A wise man has great power; and a knowledgeable man increases strength;
6 For by wise directions you will make for yourself war and victory [is] in a multitude of counselor[s].
for by wise guidance you wage your war; and victory is in many advisers.
7 [are] high For a fool wisdom in the gate not he opens mouth his.
Wisdom is too high for a fool: he does not open his mouth in the gate.
8 [one who] plans To do evil him master of plots people will call.
One who plots to do evil will be called a schemer.
9 A plan of foolishness [is] sin and [is] an abomination to humankind a mocker.
The schemes of folly are habitual sin ·missing the mark·. The mocker is detested by men.
10 You have shown yourself without courage in a day of trouble [is] narrow strength your.
If you falter in the time of trouble, your strength is small.
11 Deliver [those being] taken to death and [those who] are staggering to the slaughter if you will restrain.
Rescue those who are being led away to death! Indeed, hold back those who are staggering to the slaughter!
12 If you will say here! not we knew this ¿ not [one who] weighs hearts - he does he perceive and [one who] guards life your he does he know? and will he repay? to a person according to work his.
If you say, “Behold, we didn’t know this;” does not he who weighs the hearts consider it? He who keeps your soul, does not he know it? Surely he shall render to every man according to his work.
13 Eat O son my honey for [it is] good and honey from [the] comb [is] sweet on palate your.
My son, eat honey, for it is good; the droppings of the honeycomb, which are sweet to your taste:
14 Thus - know! wisdom for self your if you find [it] and there [is] a future and hope your not it will be cut off.
so you shall know wisdom to be to your soul; if you have found it, then there will be a reward, your hope will not be cut off.
15 May not you lie in wait wicked [person] to [the] habitation of a righteous [person] may not you devastate resting place his.
Don’t lay in wait, wicked man, against the habitation of the upright. Don’t destroy his resting place:
16 For seven [times] - he will fall a righteous [person] and he will rise and wicked [people] they will stumble in trouble.
for a upright man falls seven times, and rises up again; but the wicked are overthrown by calamity.
17 When falls (enemy your *Q(K)*) may not you rejoice and when stumbles he may not it rejoice heart your.
Don’t rejoice when your enemy falls. Don’t let your heart be glad when he is overthrown;
18 Lest he should see Yahweh and it will be displeasing in view his and he will turn back from towards him anger his.
lest Adonai see it, and it displease him, and he turn away his wrath from him.
19 May not you fret yourself by evil-doers may not you be jealous of wicked [people].
Don’t fret yourself because of evildoers; neither be envious of the wicked:
20 For - not it will belong a future to the evil [person] [the] lamp of wicked [people] it will be extinguished.
for there will be no reward to the evil man; and the lamp candle of the wicked shall be snuffed out.
21 Fear Yahweh O son my and [the] king with [those who] change may not you get involved.
My son, fear Adonai and the king. Don’t join those who are rebellious:
22 For suddenly it will arise calamity their and [the] disaster of both of them who? [is] knowing.
for their calamity will rise suddenly; the destruction from them both— who knows?
23 Also these [belong] to wise [people] to pay regard to face in judgment not [is] good.
These also are sayings of the wise. To show partiality in judgment is not good.
24 [one who] says - To a wicked [person] [are] righteous you they will curse him peoples they will denounce him nations.
He who says to the wicked, “You are upright;” peoples shall curse him, and nations shall abhor him—
25 And for the [ones who] rebuke [them] it will be pleasant and on them it will come blessing of good thing[s].
but it will go well with those who convict the guilty, and a rich blessing will come on them.
26 Lips he kisses [one who] bring back words right.
An honest answer is like a kiss on the lips.
27 Establish on the outside - work your and make ready it in the field for yourself after and you will build house your.
Prepare your work outside, and get your fields ready. Afterwards, build your house.
28 May not you be a witness without cause in neighbor your and ¿ will you deceive with lips your.
Don’t be a witness against your neighbor without cause. Don’t deceive with your lips.
29 May not you say just as he has done to me so I will do to him I will repay to the person according to deed his.
Don’t say, “I will do to him as he has done to me; I will render to the man according to his work.”
30 At [the] field of a person lazy I passed by and at [the] vineyard of a person lacking of heart.
I went by the field of the sluggard, by the vineyard of the man void of understanding;
31 And there! it had grown up all of it - thorns they were covered surface its nettles and [the] wall of stones its it was broken down.
Behold, it was all grown over with thorns. Its surface was covered with nettles, and its stone wall was broken down.
32 And I saw I I set heart my I saw I received instruction.
Then I saw, and considered well. I saw, and received instruction:
33 A little of sleep a little of slumber a little of - folding of hands to rest.
a little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to sleep;
34 And it will come going about poverty your and poverti your like a man of shield.
so your poverty will come as a robber, and your want as an armed man.
