    Proverbs 21
    • 1   Rivulets of waters is the heart of a king in the hand of Jehovah, Wherever He pleaseth He inclineth it.
    • 2   Every way of a man is right in his own eyes, And Jehovah is pondering hearts.
    • 3   To do righteousness and judgment, Is chosen of Jehovah rather than sacrifice.
    • 4   Loftiness of eyes, and breadth of heart, Tillage of the wicked is sin.
    • 5   The purposes of the diligent are only to advantage, And of every hasty one, only to want.
    • 6   The making of treasures by a lying tongue, Is a vanity driven away of those seeking death.
    • 7   The spoil of the wicked catcheth them, Because they have refused to do judgment.
    • 8   Froward is the way of a man who is vile, And the pure--upright is his work.
    • 9   Better to sit on a corner of the roof, Than with a woman of contentions and a house of company.
    • 10   The soul of the wicked hath desired evil, Not gracious in his eyes is his neighbour.
    • 11   When the scorner is punished, the simple becometh wise, And in giving understanding to the wise He receiveth knowledge.
    • 12   The Righteous One is acting wisely Towards the house of the wicked, He is overthrowing the wicked for wickedness.
    • 13   Whoso is shutting his ear from the cry of the poor, He also doth cry, and is not answered.
    • 14   A gift in secret pacifieth anger, And a bribe in the bosom strong fury.
    • 15   To do justice is joy to the righteous, But ruin to workers of iniquity.
    • 16   A man who is wandering from the way of understanding, In an assembly of Rephaim resteth.
    • 17   Whoso is loving mirth is a poor man, Whoso is loving wine and oil maketh no wealth.
    • 18   The wicked is an atonement for the righteous, And for the upright the treacherous dealer.
    • 19   Better to dwell in a wilderness land, Than with a woman of contentions and anger.
    • 20   A treasure to be desired, and oil, Is in the habitation of the wise, And a foolish man swalloweth it up.
    • 21   Whoso is pursuing righteousness and kindness, Findeth life, righteousness, and honour.
    • 22   A city of the mighty hath the wise gone up, And bringeth down the strength of its confidence.
    • 23   Whoso is keeping his mouth and his tongue, Is keeping from adversities his soul.
    • 24   Proud, haughty, scorner is his name, Who is working in the wrath of pride.
    • 25   The desire of the slothful slayeth him, For his hands have refused to work.
    • 26   All the day desiring he hath desired, And the righteous giveth and withholdeth not.
    • 27   The sacrifice of the wicked is abomination, Much more when in wickedness he bringeth it.
    • 28   A false witness doth perish, And an attentive man for ever speaketh.
    • 29   A wicked man hath hardened by his face, And the upright--he prepareth his way.
    • 30   There is no wisdom, nor understanding, Nor counsel, over-against Jehovah.
    • 31   A horse is prepared for a day of battle, And the deliverance is of Jehovah!
