Lexicon :: Strong's G1161 - de

Let the wise ^H2450 man ^H2450 hear ^H8085 and increase ^H3254 in learning ^H3948,

And a man of understanding ^H995 will acquire ^H7069 guidance ^H8458,

The fear ^H3374 of [fn]Yahweh ^H3068 is the beginning ^H7225 of knowledge ^H1847;

[fn]Ignorant ^H191 fools ^H191 despise ^H936 wisdom ^H2451 and discipline ^H4148.

If ^H518 they say ^H559, “Come ^H1980 with us,

Let us lie ^H693 in ^H693 wait ^H693 for blood ^H1818,

Let us ambush ^H6845 the innocent ^H5355 without ^H2600 cause ^H2600;

Let us swallow ^H1104 them alive ^H2416 like Sheol ^H7585,

And whole ^H8549, as those who go ^H3381 down ^H3381 to the pit ^H953;

We will find ^H4672 all ^H3605 kinds of precious ^H3368 wealth ^H1952,

We will fill ^H4390 our houses ^H1004 with spoil ^H7998;

Cast ^H5307 in your lot ^H1486 [fn]with us,

We shall all ^H3605 have ^H1961 one ^H259 purse ^H3599,”

My son ^H1121, do not walk ^H1980 in the way ^H1870 with them.

Withhold ^H4513 your feet ^H7272 from ^H4513 H4480 their pathway ^H5410,

But they lie ^H693 in ^H693 wait ^H693 for their own blood ^H1818;

They ambush ^H6845 their own [fn]lives ^H5315.

Wisdom ^H2451 shouts ^H7442 in the street ^H2351,

She gives ^H5414 forth her voice ^H6963 in the square ^H7339;

At the head ^H7218 of the noisy ^H1993 streets she calls ^H7121 out ^H7121;

At the entrance ^H6607 of the gates ^H8179 in the city ^H5892 she utters ^H559 her sayings ^H561:

“How ^H4970 long ^H5704 H4970, O simple ^H6612 ones ^H6612, will you love ^H157 simplicity ^H6612?

And scoffers ^H3887 delight ^H2530 in scoffing ^H3944

And [fn]fools ^H3684 hate ^H8130 knowledge ^H1847?

“Turn ^H7725 to my reproof ^H8433,

Behold ^H2009, I will pour ^H5042 out my spirit ^H7307 on you;

I will make ^H3045 my words ^H1697 known ^H3045 to you.

And you neglected ^H6544 all ^H3605 my counsel ^H6098

And were ^H14 not willing ^H14 to ^H14 accept ^H14 my reproof ^H8433;

I will also ^H1571 laugh ^H7832 at your disaster ^H343;

I will mock ^H3932 when your dread ^H6343 comes ^H935,

When your dread ^H6343 comes ^H935 like a storm ^H7584

And your disaster ^H343 comes ^H857 like a whirlwind ^H5492,

When distress ^H6869 and anguish ^H6695 come ^H935 upon you.

“Then ^H227 they will call ^H7121 on me, but I will not answer ^H6030;

They will seek ^H7836 me earnestly ^H7836 but they will not find ^H4672 me,

Because ^H8478 H3588 they hated ^H8130 knowledge ^H1847

And did not choose ^H977 the fear ^H3374 of Yahweh ^H3068.

“They were ^H14 not ^H14 willing ^H14 to ^H14 accept ^H14 my counsel ^H6098,

They spurned ^H5006 all ^H3605 my reproof ^H8433.

“But he who listens ^H8085 to me shall dwell ^H7931 securely ^H983

And will be ^H7599 at ^H7599 ease ^H7599 from the dread ^H6343 of evil ^H7451.”

For if ^H518 you call ^H7121 out ^H7121 for understanding ^H998,

Give ^H5414 your voice ^H6963 for discernment ^H8394;

For wisdom ^H2451 will enter ^H935 your heart ^H3820

And knowledge ^H1847 will be ^H5276 pleasant ^H5276 to your soul ^H5315;

Discretion ^H4209 will keep ^H8104 you,

Discernment ^H8394 will guard ^H5341 you,

For the upright ^H3477 will dwell ^H7931 in ^H7931 the land ^H776

And the blameless ^H8549 will remain ^H3498 in it;

But the wicked ^H7563 will be cut ^H3772 off ^H3772 from the land ^H776

And the treacherous ^H898 will be torn ^H5255 away ^H5255 from it.

Do not let lovingkindness ^H2617 and truth ^H571 forsake ^H5800 you;

Bind ^H7194 them around ^H5921 your neck ^H1621,

Write ^H3789 them on the tablet ^H3871 of your heart ^H3820.

Trust ^H982 in Yahweh ^H3068 with all ^H3605 your heart ^H3820

And do not lean ^H8172 on your own understanding ^H998.

In all ^H3605 your ways ^H1870 [fn]acknowledge ^H3045 Him,

And He will make ^H3474 your paths ^H734 straight ^H3474.

Do not be wise ^H2450 in your own eyes ^H5869;

Fear ^H3372 Yahweh ^H3068 and turn ^H5493 away ^H5493 from evil ^H7451.

So your barns ^H618 will be filled ^H4390 with plenty ^H7647

And your vats ^H3342 will burst ^H6555 with new ^H8492 wine ^H8492.

For whom ^H834 Yahweh ^H3068 loves ^H157 He reproves ^H3198,

Even as a father ^H1 reproves the son ^H1121 in whom he delights ^H7521.

She is more ^H4480 precious ^H3368 than ^H4480 [fn]pearls ^H6443;

And nothing ^H3605 H3808 you desire ^H2656 compares ^H7737 with her.

Length ^H753 of days ^H3117 is in her right ^H3225 hand ^H3225;

In her left ^H8040 hand ^H8040 are riches ^H6239 and glory ^H3519.

Yahweh ^H3068 by wisdom ^H2451 founded ^H3245 the earth ^H776,

By discernment ^H8394 He established ^H3559 the heavens ^H8064.

By His knowledge ^H1847 the deeps ^H8415 were split ^H1234 up ^H1234

And the skies ^H7834 drip ^H7491 with dew ^H2919.

My son ^H1121, let them not deviate ^H3868 from your eyes ^H5869;

Guard ^H5341 sound ^H8454 wisdom ^H8454 and discretion ^H4209,

Then ^H227 you will walk ^H1980 in your way ^H1870 securely ^H983

And your foot ^H7272 will not stumble ^H5062.

When ^H518 you lie ^H7901 down ^H7901, you will not be ^H6342 in ^H6342 dread ^H6342;

You will lie ^H7901 down ^H7901, and your sleep ^H8142 will be pleasant ^H6149.

For the devious ^H3868 one ^H3868 is an abomination ^H8441 to Yahweh ^H3068;

But His secret ^H5475 council ^H5475 is with the upright ^H3477.

The curse ^H3994 of Yahweh ^H3068 is on the house ^H1004 of the wicked ^H7563 one ^H7563,

But He blesses ^H1288 the abode ^H5116 of the righteous ^H6662.

Though ^H518 He scoffs ^H3887 at the scoffers ^H3887,

Yet He gives ^H5414 grace ^H2580 to the humble ^H6035.

The wise ^H2450 will inherit ^H5157 glory ^H3519,

But [fn]fools ^H3684 raise ^H7311 up ^H7311 disgrace ^H7036.

I have instructed ^H3384 you in the way ^H1870 of wisdom ^H2451;

I have led ^H1869 you in upright ^H3476 tracks ^H4570.

When you walk ^H1980, your steps ^H6806 will not be impeded ^H6887;

And if ^H518 you run ^H7323, you will not stumble ^H3782.

Avoid ^H6544 it, do not pass ^H5674 by ^H5674 it;

Stray ^H7847 from it and pass ^H5674 on ^H5674.

For they eat ^H3898 the bread ^H3899 of wickedness ^H7562

And drink ^H8354 the wine ^H3196 of violence ^H2555.

But the path ^H734 of the righteous ^H6662 is like the light ^H216 of dawn ^H5051,

That shines ^H215 brighter ^H1980 and brighter ^H1980 until ^H5704 the fullness ^H3559 of day ^H3117.
