Proverbs 22 (kjv)

A good name^H8034 is rather to be chosen^H977 than great^H7227 riches^H6239, and loving^H2896 favour^H2580 rather than silver^H3701 and gold^H2091.²The rich^H6223 and poor^H7326 meet together^H6298: the LORD^H3068 is the maker^H6213 of them all.³A prudent^H6175 man foreseeth^H7200 the evil^H7451, and hideth^{H5641 H5641} himself: but the simple^H6612 pass on^H5674, and are punished^H6064.⁴By^H6118 humility^H6038 and the fear^H3374 of the LORD^H3068 are riches^H6239, and honour^H3519, and life^H2416.⁵Thorns^H6791 and snares^H6341 are in the way^H1870 of the froward^H6141: he that doth keep^H8104 his soul^H5315 shall be far^H7368 from them.⁶Train up^H2596 a child^H5288 in the way^H1870 he should go^H6310: and when he is old^H2204, he will not depart^H5493 from it.⁷The rich^H6223 ruleth^H4910 over the poor^H7326, and the borrower^H3867 is servant^H5650 to the lender^{H376 H3867}.⁸He that soweth^H2232 iniquity^H5766 shall reap^H7114 vanity^H205: and the rod^H7626 of his anger^H5678 shall fail^H3615.⁹He that hath a bountiful^H2896 eye^H5869 shall be blessed^H1288; for he giveth^H5414 of his bread^H3899 to the poor^H1800.¹⁰Cast out^H1644 the scorner^H3887, and contention^H4066 shall go out^H3318; yea, strife^H1779 and reproach^H7036 shall cease^H7673.¹¹He that loveth^H157 pureness^{H2890 H2889} of heart^H3820, for the grace^H2580 of his lips^H8193 the king^H4428 shall be his friend^H7453.¹²The eyes^H5869 of the LORD^H3068 preserve^H5341 knowledge^H1847, and he overthroweth^H5557 the words^H1697 of the transgressor^H898.¹³The slothful^H6102 man saith^H559, There is a lion^H738 without^H2351, I shall be slain^H7523 in^H8432 the streets^H7339.¹⁴The mouth^H6310 of strange women^H2114 is a deep^H6013 pit^H7745: he that is abhorred^H2194 of the LORD^H3068 shall fall^H5307 therein.¹⁵Foolishness^H200 is bound^H7194 in the heart^H3820 of a child^H5288; but the rod^H7626 of correction^H4148 shall drive it far^H7368 from him.¹⁶He that oppresseth^H6231 the poor^H1800 to increase^H7235 his riches, and he that giveth^H5414 to the rich^H6223, shall surely come to want^H4270.¹⁷Bow down^H5186 thine ear^H241, and hear^H8085 the words^H1697 of the wise^H2450, and apply^H7896 thine heart^H3820 unto my knowledge^H1847.¹⁸For it is a pleasant thing^H5273 if thou keep^H8104 them within^H990 thee; they shall withal^H3162 be fitted^H3559 in thy lips^H8193.¹⁹That thy trust^H4009 may be in the LORD^H3068, I have made known^H3045 to thee this day^H3117, even to thee.²⁰Have not I written^H3789 to thee^H8032 excellent things^H7991 in counsels^H4156 and knowledge^H1847,²¹That I might make thee know^H3045 the certainty^H7189 of the words^H561 of truth^H571; that thou mightest answer^H7725 the words^H561 of truth^H571 to them that send^H7971 unto thee?²²Rob^H1497 not the poor^H1800, because he is poor^H1800: neither oppress^H1792 the afflicted^H6041 in the gate^H8179:²³For the LORD^H3068 will plead^H7378 their cause^H7379, and spoil^H6906 the soul^H5315 of those that spoiled^H6906 them.²⁴Make no friendship^H7462 with an angry^H639 man^H1167; and with a furious^H2534 man^H376 thou shalt not go^H935:²⁵Lest thou learn^H502 his ways^H734, and get^H3947 a snare^H4170 to thy soul^H5315.²⁶Be not thou one of them that strike^H8628 hands^H3709, or of them that are sureties^H6148 for debts^H4859.²⁷If thou hast nothing to pay^H7999, why should he take away^H3947 thy bed^H4904 from under thee?²⁸Remove^H5253 not the ancient^H5769 landmark^H1366, which thy fathers^H1 have set^H6213.²⁹Seest^H2372 thou a man^H376 diligent^H4106 in his business^H4399? he shall stand^H3320 before^H6440 kings^H4428; he shall not stand^H3320 before^H6440 mean^H2823 men.
