    Proverbs 24
    • 1   Seek not to be like evil men, neither desire to be with them:
    • 2   Because their mind studieth robberies, and their lips speak deceits.
    • 3   By wisdom the house shall be built, and by prudence it shall be strengthened.
    • 4   By instruction the storerooms shall be filled with all precious and most beautiful wealth.
    • 5   A wise man is strong: and a knowing man, stout and valiant.
    • 6   Because war is managed by due ordering: and there shall be safety where there are many counsels.
    • 7   Wisdom is too high for a fool; in the gate he shall not open his mouth.
    • 8   He that deviseth to do evils, shall be called a fool.
    • 9   The thought of a fool is sin: and the detractor is the abomination of men.
    • 10   If thou lose hope, being weary in the day of distress, thy strength shall be diminished.
    • 11   Deliver them that are led to death: and those that are drawn to death, forbear not to deliver.
    • 12   If thou say: I have not strength enough: he that seeth into the heart, he understandeth, and nothing deceiveth the keeper of thy soul, and he shall render to a man according to his works.
    • 13   Eat honey, my son, because it is good, and the honeycomb most sweet to thy throat.
    • 14   So also is the doctrine of wisdom to thy soul: which when thou hast found, thou shalt have hope in the end, and thy hope shall not perish.
    • 15   Lie not in wait, nor seek after wickedness in the house of the just, nor spoil his rest.
    • 16   For a just man shall fall seven times, and shall rise again: but the wicked shall fall down into evil.
    • 17   When thy enemy shall fall, be not glad, and in his ruin let not thy heart rejoice:
    • 18   Lest the Lord see, and it displease him, and he turn away his wrath from him.
    • 19   Contend not with the wicked, nor seek to be like the ungodly.
    • 20   For evil men have no hope of things to come, and the lamp of the wicked shall be put out.
    • 21   My son, fear the Lord, and the king: and have nothing to do with detractors.
    • 22   For their destruction shall rise suddenly: and who knoweth the ruin of both?
    • 23   These things also to the wise: It is not good to have respect to persons in judgment.
    • 24   They that say to the wicked man: Thou art just: shall be cursed by the people, and the tribes shall abhor them.
    • 25   They that rebuke him shall be praised: and a blessing shall come upon them.
    • 26   He shall kiss the lips, who answereth right words.
    • 27   Prepare thy work without, and diligently till thy ground: that afterward thou mayst build thy house.
    • 28   Be not witness without cause against thy neighbour: and deceive not any man with thy lips.
    • 29   Say not: I will do to him as he hath done to me: I will render to every one according to his work.
    • 30   I passed by the field of the slothful man, and by the vineyard of the foolish man:
    • 31   And behold it was all filled with nettles, and thorns had covered the face thereof, and the stone wall was broken down.
    • 32   Which when I had seen, I laid it up in my heart, and by the example I received instruction.
    • 33   Thou wilt sleep a little, said I, thou wilt slumber a little, thou wilt fold thy hands a little to rest.
    • 34   And poverty shall come to thee as a runner, and beggary as an armed man.
