Proverbs 28
1 They flee and there not [is one who] pursues [the] wicked and righteous [people] like a young lion he is confident.
The wicked flee when no man pursueth; but the righteous are bold as a lion.
2 By [the] transgression of a land [are] many princes its and by a person understanding knowing thus it will last long.
By the transgression of a land many are the princes thereof; but by a man of understanding [and] of knowledge, [its] stability is prolonged.
3 A man poor and [who] oppresses poor [people] rain [which] washes away and there not [is] food.
A poor man who oppresseth the helpless is a sweeping rain which leaveth no food.
4 [those who] forsake [the] law They praise [the] wicked and [those who] keep [the] law they engage in strife with them.
They that forsake the law praise the wicked; but such as keep the law contend with them.
5 People of evil not they understand justice and [those who] seek Yahweh they understand everything.
Evil men understand not judgment; but they that seek Jehovah understand everything.
6 [is] good A poor [person] [who] walks in integrity his more than [the] [person] perverse of two ways and he [is] rich.
Better is the poor that walketh in his integrity, than he that is perverse, double in ways, though he be rich.
7 [one who] keeps [the] law [is] a son Understanding and [one who] associates with gluttons he shames father his.
Whoso observeth the law is a son that hath understanding; but he that is a companion of profligates bringeth shame to his father.
8 [one who] increases Wealth his by interest (and usury *Q(K)*) for [one who] shows favor to poor [people] he gathers it.
He that by usury and unjust gain increaseth his substance gathereth it for him that is gracious to the poor.
9 [one who] turns aside Ear his from hearing [the] law also prayer his [is] an abomination.
He that turneth away his ear from hearing the law, even his prayer is an abomination.
10 [one who] leads astray Upright [people] - in a way evil in own pit his he he will fall and blameless [people] they will inherit good.
Whoso causeth the upright to go astray in an evil way, shall himself fall into his own pit; but the perfect shall inherit good.
11 [is] wise In own eyes his a person rich and a poor [person] understanding he examines thoroughly him.
A rich man is wise in his own eyes; but the poor that hath understanding searcheth him out.
12 When rejoice righteous [people] great glory and when arise wicked [people] he is searched for everyone.
When the righteous triumph, there is great glory; but when the wicked rise, men conceal themselves.
13 [one who] conceals Transgressions his not he will prosper and [one who] confesses and [one who] forsakes [them] he will be shown mercy.
He that covereth his transgressions shall not prosper; but whoso confesseth and forsaketh [them] shall obtain mercy.
14 How blessed! [is] a person [who] fears continually and [one who] hardens heart his he will fall in calamity.
Happy is the man that feareth always; but he that hardeneth his heart shall fall into evil.
15 A lion roaring and a bear rushing a ruler wicked over a people poor.
A roaring lion, and a ranging bear, is a wicked ruler over a poor people.
16 A ruler lacking of understanding and great of extortion ([one who] hates *Q(K)*) unjust gain he will prolong days.
The prince void of intelligence is also a great oppressor: he that hateth covetousness shall prolong [his] days.
17 A person oppressed by [the] blood of a life to [the] pit he will flee may not people support him.
A man laden with the blood of [any] person, fleeth to the pit: let no man stay him.
18 [one who] walks Blameless he will be delivered and [one who] is crooked of two ways he will fall at one.
Whoso walketh in integrity shall be saved; but he that is perverted in [his] double ways, shall fall in one [of them].
19 [one who] tills Land his he will be satisfied food and [one who] pursues empty [things] he will be satisfied poverty.
He that tilleth his land shall be satisfied with bread; but he that followeth the worthless shall have poverty enough.
20 A person of faithfulness [will be] great of blessings and [one who] hastens to gain riches not he will go unpunished.
A faithful man aboundeth with blessings; but he that maketh haste to be rich shall not be innocent.
21 To pay regard to face not [is] good and on a piece of bread he will transgress a man.
To have respect of persons is not good; but for a piece of bread will a man transgress.
22 [is] hastening To wealth a person evil of eye and not he knows that poverty it will come to him.
He that hath an evil eye hasteth after wealth, and knoweth not that poverty shall come upon him.
23 [one who] reproves A person after me favor he will find more than [one who] makes smooth [the] tongue.
He that rebuketh a man shall afterwards find more favour than he that flattereth with the tongue.
24 [one who] robs - Father his and mother his and [one who] says there not [is] a transgression [is] a companion he of a person of destruction.
Whoso robbeth his father and his mother, and saith, It is no transgression, the same is the companion of a destroyer.
25 A [person] arrogant of self he stirs up strife and [one who] relies on Yahweh he will be made fat.
He that is puffed up in soul exciteth contention; but he that relieth upon Jehovah shall be made fat.
26 [one who] trusts In own heart his he [is] a fool and [one who] walks in wisdom he he will be delivered.
He that confideth in his own heart is a fool; but whoso walketh wisely, he shall be delivered.
27 [one who] gives To the poor there not [is] lack and [one who] hides eyes his great of curses.
He that giveth unto the poor shall not lack; but he that withdraweth his eyes shall have many a curse.
28 When arise wicked [people] he hides himself everyone and when perish they they increase righteous [people].
When the wicked rise, men hide themselves; but when they perish, the righteous increase.
