Warnings and Instructions
1 The wicked H7563 flee H5127 when no H369 one H369 is pursuing H7291,
But the righteous H6662 are H982 [fn]bold H982 as a lion H3715.
2 Due to a [fn]wrongdoing H6588 of [fn]a land H776 its leaders H8269 are many H7227,
But by a person H120 of understanding H995 and knowledge H3045, so H3651 it endures H748.
3 A poor H7326 man H1397 who oppresses H6231 the helpless H1800
Is like a driving H5502 rain H4306 [fn]which leaves H369 no H369 food H3899.
4 Those who abandon H5800 the Law H8451 praise H1984 the wicked H7563,
But those who keep H8104 the Law H8451 strive H1624 against them.
5 Evil H7451 people H376 do not understand H995 justice H4941,
But those who seek H1245 the LORD H3068 understand H995 everything H3605.
6 Better H2896 is a poor H7326 person H7326 who walks H1980 in his integrity H8537,
Than H4480 a person who is [fn]crooked H6141 H1870, though he is rich H6223.
7 He who keeps H5341 the Law H8451 is a discerning H995 son H1121,
But he who is a companion H7462 of gluttons H2151 humiliates H3637 his father H1.
8 One who increases H7235 his wealth H1952 by [fn]interest H5392 H8636 of any kind,
Collects H6908 it for one who is gracious H2603 to the poor H1800.
9 One who turns H5493 his ear H241 away H5493 from listening H8085 to the Law H8451,
Even H1571 his prayer H8605 is an abomination H8441.
10 One who leads H7686 the upright H3477 astray H7686 in an evil H7451 way H1870
Will himself H1931 fall H5307 into his own pit H7816,
But the blameless H8549 will inherit H5157 good H2896.
11 The rich H6223 person H376 is wise H2450 in his own eyes H5869,
But the poor H1800 who has H995 understanding H995 [fn]sees H2713 through H2713 him.
12 When the righteous H6662 triumph H5970, there is great H7227 glory H8597,
But when the wicked H7563 rise H6965, people H120 [fn]hide H2664 themselves.
13 One who conceals H3680 his wrongdoings H6588 will not prosper H6743,
But one who confesses H3034 and abandons H5800 them will find H7355 compassion H7355.
14 How blessed H835 is the person H120 who fears H6342 always H8548,
But one who hardens H7185 his heart H3820 will fall H5307 into disaster H7451.
15 Like a roaring H5098 lion H738 and a rushing H8264 bear H1677
Is a wicked H7563 ruler H4910 over H5921 a poor H1800 people H5971.
16 A leader H5057 who is a great H7227 oppressor H4642 lacks H2638 understanding H8394,
But a person who hates H8130 unjust H1215 gain H1215 will prolong H748 his days H3117.
17 A person H120 who is burdened H6231 with the guilt of human H5315 blood H1818
Will [fn]be a fugitive H5127 until H5704 death H953; no H408 one is to support H8551 him!
18 One who walks H1980 blamelessly H8549 will receive H3467 help H3467,
But one who is [fn]crooked H6140 H1870 will fall H5307 all H259 at once H259.
19 One who works H5647 his land H127 will have H7646 plenty H7646 of food H3899,
But one who follows H7291 empty H7386 pursuits will have H7646 plenty H7646 of poverty H7389.
20 A faithful H530 person H376 will abound H7227 with blessings H1293,
But one who hurries H213 to be H6238 rich H6238 will not go H5352 unpunished H5352.
21 To [fn]show H5234 partiality H5234 H6440 is not good H2896,
Because for a piece H6595 of bread H3899 a man H1397 will do H6586 wrong H6586.
22 A person H376 with an evil H7451 eye H5869 hurries H926 after wealth H1952
And does not know H3045 that poverty H2639 will come H935 upon him.
23 One who rebukes H3198 a person H120 will afterward H310 find H4672 more favor H2580
Than H4480 one who flatters H2505 with the tongue H3956.
24 He who robs H1497 his father H1 or his mother H517
And says H559, “There H369 is H369 no H369 wrong H6588 done H6588,”
Is the companion H2270 of a person H376 who destroys H7843.
25 An [fn]arrogant H7342 person H5315 stirs H1624 up H1624 strife H4066,
But one who trusts H982 in the LORD H3068 will [fn]prosper H1878.
26 One who trusts H982 in his own heart H3820 is a fool H3684,
But one who walks H1980 wisely H2451 will flee H4422 to H4422 safety H4422.
27 One who gives H5414 to the poor H7326 will never H369 lack H4270 anything,
But one who [fn]shuts H5956 his eyes H5869 will have many H7227 curses H3994.
28 When the wicked H7563 rise H6965, people H120 hide H5641 themselves;
But when they perish H6, the righteous H6662 increase H7235.
