I understand that the Aionian Bible republishes public domain and Creative Commons Bible texts and that volunteers may be needed to present the original text accurately. I also understand that apocryphal text is removed and most variant verse numbering is mapped to the English standard. I have entered my corrections under the verse(s) below. Proposed corrections to the LXX: Septuagint, English 2012, Proverbs Chapter 17 https://www.AionianBible.org/Bibles/English---LXX2012-U-S-English/Proverbs/17 1) Better is a morsel with pleasure in peace, than a house [full] of many good things and unjust sacrifices, with strife. 2) A wise servant shall have rule over foolish masters, and shall divide portions among brethren. 3) As silver and gold are tried in a furnace, so are choice hearts with the Lord. 4) A bad man hearkens to the tongue of transgressors: but a righteous man attends not to false lips. 5) He that laughs at the poor provokes him that made him; and he that rejoices at the destruction of another shall not be held guiltless: but he that has compassion shall find mercy. 6) Children's children are the crown of old men; and their fathers are the glory of children. The faithful has the whole world full of wealth; but the faithless not even a farthing. 7) Faithful lips will not suit a fool; nor lying lips a just man. 8) Instruction is to them that use it a gracious reward; and wherever it may turn, it shall prosper. 9) He that conceals injuries seeks love; but he that hates to hide [them] separates friends and kindred. 10) A threat breaks down the heart of a wise man; but a fool, though scourged, understands not. 11) Every bad man stirs up strifes: but the Lord will send out against him an unmerciful messenger. 12) Care may befall a man of understanding; but fools will meditate evils. 13) Whoso rewards evil for good, evil shall not be removed from his house. 14) Rightful rule gives power to words; but sedition and strife precede poverty. 15) He that pronounces the unjust just, and the just unjust, is unclean and abominable with God. 16) Why has the fool wealth? for a senseless man will not be able to purchase wisdom. He that exalts his own house seeks ruin; and he that turns aside from instruction shall fall into mischief. 17) Have you a friend for every time, and let brethren be useful in distress; for on this account are they born. 18) A foolish man applauds and rejoices over himself, [as he] also that becomes surety would make himself responsible for his own friends. 19) A lover of sin rejoices in strifes; 20) and the hard-hearted man comes not in for good. A man of a changeful tongue will fall into mischiefs; 21) and the heart of a fool is grief to its possessor. A father rejoices not over an uninstructed son; but a wise son gladdens his mother. 22) A glad heart promotes health; but the bones of a sorrowful man dry up. 23) The ways of a man who unjustly receives gifts in [his] bosom do not prosper; and an ungodly man perverts the ways of righteousness. 24) The countenance of a wise man is sensible; but the eyes of a fool [go] to the ends of the earth. 25) A foolish son [is a cause of] anger to his father, and grief to her that bore him. 26) [It is] not right to punish a righteous man, nor [is it] holy to plot against righteous princes. 27) He that forbears to utter a hard word is discreet, and a patient man is wise. 28) Wisdom shall be imputed to a fool who asks after wisdom: and he who holds his peace shall seem to be sensible.
