2.5 KiB
Chapter 27
-
Do not boast about tomorrow, for you do not know what a day may bring.
-
Let another praise you, and not your own mouth; a stranger, and not your own lips.
-
A stone is heavy, and sand is weighty, but a fool's provocation is heavier than both.
-
Wrath is cruel, anger is overwhelming, but who can stand before jealousy?
-
Better is open rebuke than hidden love.
-
Faithful are the wounds of a friend; profuse are the kisses of an enemy.
-
One who is full loathes honey, but to one who is hungry everything bitter is sweet.
-
Like a bird that strays from its nest is a man who strays from his home.
-
Oil and perfume make the heart glad, and the sweetness of a friend comes from his earnest counsel.
-
Do not forsake your friend and your father's friend, and do not go to your brother's house in the day of your calamity. Better is a neighbor who is near than a brother who is far away.
-
Be wise, my son, and make my heart glad, that I may answer him who reproaches me.
-
The prudent sees danger and hides himself, but the simple go on and suffer for it.
-
Take a man's garment when he has put up security for a stranger, and hold it in pledge when he puts up security for an adulteress.
-
Whoever blesses his neighbor with a loud voice, rising early in the morning, will be counted as cursing.
-
A continual dripping on a rainy day and a quarrelsome wife are alike;
-
to restrain her is to restrain the wind or to grasp oil in one's right hand.
-
Iron sharpens iron, and one man sharpens another.
-
Whoever tends a fig tree will eat its fruit, and he who guards his master will be honored.
-
As in water face reflects face, so the heart of man reflects the man.
-
Sheol and Abaddon are never satisfied, and never satisfied are the eyes of man.
-
The crucible is for silver, and the furnace is for gold, and a man is tested by his praise.
-
Crush a fool in a mortar with a pestle along with crushed grain, yet his folly will not depart from him.
-
Know well the condition of your flocks, and give attention to your herds,
-
for riches do not last forever; and does a crown endure to all generations?
-
When the grass is gone and the new growth appears and the vegetation of the mountains is gathered,
-
the lambs will provide your clothing, and the goats the price of a field.
-
There will be enough goats' milk for your food, for the food of your household and maintenance for your girls.
