Unchecked Copy BoxPro 1:1 - The proverbs of Shlomo, the son of David, king of Yisra'el:
Unchecked Copy BoxPro 1:2 - To know wisdom and instruction; To discern the words of understanding;
Unchecked Copy BoxPro 1:3 - To receive instruction in wise dealing, In righteousness, justice, and equity;
Unchecked Copy BoxPro 1:4 - To give prudence to the simple, Knowledge and discretion to the young man:
Unchecked Copy BoxPro 1:5 - That the wise man may hear, and increase in learning; That the man of understanding may attain to sound counsel:
Unchecked Copy BoxPro 1:6 - To understand a proverb, and parables, The words and riddles of the wise.

The Enticement of Sinners

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 1:8 - My son, listen to your father's instruction, And don't forsake your mother's teaching:
Unchecked Copy BoxPro 1:9 - For they will be a garland to grace your head, And chains around your neck.
Unchecked Copy BoxPro 1:10 - My son, if sinners entice you, don't consent.
Unchecked Copy BoxPro 1:11 - If they say, "Come with us, Let's lay in wait for blood; Let's lurk secretly for the innocent without cause;
Unchecked Copy BoxPro 1:12 - Let's swallow them up alive like She'ol, And whole, like those who go down into the pit.
Unchecked Copy BoxPro 1:13 - We'll find all valuable wealth. We'll fill our houses with spoil.
Unchecked Copy BoxPro 1:14 - You shall cast your lot among us. We'll all have one purse."
Unchecked Copy BoxPro 1:15 - My son, don't walk in the way with them. Keep your foot from their path,
Unchecked Copy BoxPro 1:16 - For their feet run to evil. They hurry to shed blood.
Unchecked Copy BoxPro 1:17 - For in vain is the net spread in the sight of any bird:
Unchecked Copy BoxPro 1:18 - But these lay wait for their own blood. They lurk secretly for their own lives.

Wisdom Warns

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 1:20 - Wisdom calls aloud in the street. She utters her voice in the public squares.
Unchecked Copy BoxPro 1:21 - She calls at the head of noisy places. At the entrance of the city gates, she utters her words:
Unchecked Copy BoxPro 1:22 - "How long, you simple ones, will you love simplicity? How long will mockers delight themselves in mockery, And fools hate knowledge?
Unchecked Copy BoxPro 1:23 - Turn at my reproof. Behold, I will pour out my spirit on you. I will make known my words to you.
Unchecked Copy BoxPro 1:24 - Because I have called, and you have refused; I have stretched out my hand, and no one has paid attention;
Unchecked Copy BoxPro 1:25 - But you have ignored all my counsel, And wanted none of my reproof;
Unchecked Copy BoxPro 1:26 - I also will laugh at your disaster. I will mock when calamity overtakes you;
Unchecked Copy BoxPro 1:27 - When calamity overtakes you like a storm, When your disaster comes on like a whirlwind; When distress and anguish come on you.
Unchecked Copy BoxPro 1:28 - Then will they call on me, but I will not answer. They will seek me diligently, but they will not find me;
Unchecked Copy BoxPro 1:29 - Because they hated knowledge, And didn't choose the fear of the LORD.
Unchecked Copy BoxPro 1:30 - They wanted none of my counsel. They despised all my reproof.
Unchecked Copy BoxPro 1:31 - Therefore they will eat of the fruit of their own way, And be filled with their own schemes.
Unchecked Copy BoxPro 1:32 - For the backsliding of the simple will kill them. The careless ease of fools will destroy them.
Unchecked Copy BoxPro 1:33 - But whoever listens to me will dwell securely, And will be at ease, without fear of harm."
