Proverbs 20

Proverbs 20

1 The yayin is a mocker, strong drink a brawler; and whosoever is seduced to be led astray thereby is not wise. 2 The wrath of a melech is as the roaring of a lion; he who provoketh him to anger sinneth against his own nefesh. 3 It is kavod for an ish to cease from strife, but any fool can start a quarrel. 4 The atzel [(sluggard, lazy one)] will not plow by reason of choref [(winter, cold)]; therefore shall he beg at katzir [(harvest)], and have nothing. 5 Etzah [(purpose)] in the lev ish is like deep mayim, but an ish tevunah will draw it out. 6 Rav adam will proclaim every one his own chesed, but an ish emunim [(faithful man, loyal man)] who can find one? 7 The tzaddik walketh in his tohm [(integrity, guilelessness)]; his banim after him are blessed. 8 A melech that sitteth in the kisse din [(throne of judgment)] winnows out all rah with his eynayim. 9 Who can say, I have made my lev pure, I am tahor from my chattat? 10 Differing weights, and differing measures, both of them are alike to'evah to Hashem. 11 Even a na'ar [(child)] is known by his ways, whether his conduct be pure, and whether it be yashar [(right)]. 12 The hearing ozen, and the seeing ayin, Hashem hath made even both of them. 13 Love not sheynah [(sleep)], lest thou come to poverty; open thine eynayim, and thou shalt have enough lechem. 14 It is good for nothing, it is naught, saith the koneh [(buyer)], but when he is gone his way, then he boasteth. 15 There is zahav, and a multitude of rubies, but the sfatayim [(lips)] of da'as are a precious jewel. 16 Take his garment that is guaranty for a zar [(stranger)], and hold it as his pledge for a nokhriyah [(foreign woman, strange woman, seductress)]. 17 Lechem from sheker [(deceit)] is sweet to an ish, but afterwards his peh [(mouth)] shall be filled with gravel. 18 Every plan is established by etzah, and with tachbulot [(guidance)] wage milchamah. 19 He that goeth about as a rakhil [(gossip, slanderer, talebearer)] revealeth secrets; therefore associate not with the babbler. 20 He who curseth aviv or immo, his ner [(lamp)] shall be put out in deep choshech. 21 A nachalah [(inheritance)] may be gotten hastily at the rishonah [(beginning)]; but the acharit [(latter end)] thereof shall not have a bracha. 22 Say not thou, I will pay back rah; but wait on Hashem, and He shall save thee. 23 Differing weights are a to'evah unto Hashem, and scales of mirmah [(deceit)] are not tov. 24 The steps of a gever are from Hashem; how can an adam then understand his own derech [(way, lifeʼs course)]? 25 It is a mokesh adam to devote rashly as kodesh, and after nedarim [(vows)] to reconsider his consecration. 26 A melech chacham winnows out the resha'im and bringeth the ofan [(threshing wheel)] over them. 27 The neshamah of adam is the ner [(light)] of Hashem, searching all the innermost beten. 28 Chesed and emes guard the Melech, and his kisse is upheld by chesed. 29 The tiferet [(glory)] of bochurim is their ko'ach [(strength)], and the hadar [(splendor)] of zekenim is the silvery head. 30 Blows that wound cleanseth away rah; so do beatings the innermost beten.
