# Proverbs 22 (New King James Version)
|
|
The Value of a Good Name
|
|
|
|
##### Chapter 22
|
|
###### 1 A _good_ name is to be chosen rather than great riches,
|
|
Loving favor rather than silver and gold.
|
|
|
|
###### 2 The rich and the poor have this in common,
|
|
The Lord _is_ the maker of them all.
|
|
|
|
###### 3 A prudent _man_ foresees evil and hides himself,
|
|
But the simple pass on and are punished.
|
|
|
|
###### 4 By humility _and_ the fear of the Lord
|
|
_Are_ riches and honor and life.
|
|
|
|
###### 5 Thorns _and_ snares _are_ in the way of the perverse;
|
|
He who guards his soul will be far from them.
|
|
|
|
###### 6 Train up a child in the way he should go,
|
|
And when he is old he will not depart from it.
|
|
|
|
###### 7 The rich rules over the poor,
|
|
And the borrower _is_ servant to the lender.
|
|
|
|
###### 8 He who sows iniquity will reap sorrow,
|
|
And the rod of his anger will fail.
|
|
|
|
###### 9 He who has a generous eye will be blessed,
|
|
For he gives of his bread to the poor.
|
|
|
|
###### 10 Cast out the scoffer, and contention will leave;
|
|
Yes, strife and reproach will cease.
|
|
|
|
###### 11 He who loves purity of heart
|
|
_And has_ grace on his lips,
|
|
The king _will be_ his friend.
|
|
|
|
###### 12 The eyes of the Lord preserve knowledge,
|
|
But He overthrows the words of the faithless.
|
|
|
|
###### 13 The lazy _man_ says, "_There is_ a lion outside!
|
|
I shall be slain in the streets!"
|
|
|
|
###### 14 The mouth of an immoral woman _is_ a deep pit;
|
|
He who is abhorred by the Lord will fall there.
|
|
|
|
###### 15 Foolishness _is_ bound up in the heart of a child;
|
|
The rod of correction will drive it far from him.
|
|
|
|
###### 16 He who oppresses the poor to increase his _riches,_
|
|
_And_ he who gives to the rich, _will_ surely _come_ to poverty.Sayings of the Wise
|
|
|
|
###### 17 Incline your ear and hear the words of the wise,
|
|
And apply your heart to my knowledge;
|
|
|
|
###### 18 For _it is_ a pleasant thing if you keep them within you;
|
|
Let them all be fixed upon your lips,
|
|
|
|
###### 19 So that your trust may be in the Lord;
|
|
I have instructed you today, even you.
|
|
|
|
###### 20 Have I not written to you excellent things
|
|
Of counsels and knowledge,
|
|
|
|
###### 21 That I may make you know the certainty of the words of truth,
|
|
That you may answer words of truth
|
|
To those who send to you?
|
|
|
|
###### 22 Do not rob the poor because he _is_ poor,
|
|
Nor oppress the afflicted at the gate;
|
|
|
|
###### 23 For the Lord will plead their cause,
|
|
And plunder the soul of those who plunder them.
|
|
|
|
###### 24 Make no friendship with an angry man,
|
|
And with a furious man do not go,
|
|
|
|
###### 25 Lest you learn his ways
|
|
And set a snare for your soul.
|
|
|
|
###### 26 Do not be one of those who shakes hands in a pledge,
|
|
One of those who is surety for debts;
|
|
|
|
###### 27 If you have nothing _with which_ to pay,
|
|
Why should he take away your bed from under you?
|
|
|
|
###### 28 Do not remove the ancient landmark
|
|
Which your fathers have set.
|
|
|
|
###### 29 Do you see a man _who_ excels in his work?
|
|
He will stand before kings;
|
|
He will not stand before unknown _men._
