The Westminster Leningrad Codex
6 בְּ֭רָכוֹת לְרֹ֣אשׁ צַדִּ֑יק וּפִ֥י רְ֝שָׁעִ֗ים יְכַסֶּ֥ה חָמָֽס׃
7 זֵ֣כֶר צַ֭דִּיק לִבְרָכָ֑ה וְשֵׁ֖ם רְשָׁעִ֣ים יִרְקָֽב׃
8 חֲכַם־לֵ֭ב יִקַּ֣ח מִצְוֺ֑ת וֶאֱוִ֥יל שְׂ֝פָתַ֗יִם יִלָּבֵֽט׃
9 הוֹלֵ֣ךְ בַּ֭תֹּם יֵ֣לֶךְ בֶּ֑טַח וּמְעַקֵּ֥שׁ דְּ֝רָכָ֗יו יִוָּדֵֽעַ׃
10 קֹ֣רֵֽץ עַ֭יִן יִתֵּ֣ן עַצָּ֑בֶת וֶאֱוִ֥יל שְׂ֝פָתַ֗יִם יִלָּבֵֽט׃
11 מְק֣וֹר חַ֭יִּים פִּ֣י צַדִּ֑יק וּפִ֥י רְ֝שָׁעִ֗ים יְכַסֶּ֥ה חָמָֽס׃
12 שִׂ֭נְאָה תְּעוֹרֵ֣ר מְדָנִ֑ים וְעַ֥ל כָּל־פְּ֝שָׁעִ֗ים תְּכַסֶּ֥ה אַהֲבָֽה׃
13 בְּשִׂפְתֵ֣י נָ֭בוֹן תִּמָּצֵ֣א חָכְמָ֑ה וְ֝שֵׁ֗בֶט לְגֵ֣ו חֲסַר־לֵֽב׃
14 חֲכָמִ֥ים יִצְפְּנוּ־דָ֑עַת וּפִֽי־אֱ֝וִיל מְחִתָּ֥ה קְרֹבָֽה׃
15 ה֣וֹן עָ֭שִׁיר קִרְיַ֣ת עֻזּ֑וֹ מְחִתַּ֖ת דַּלִּ֣ים רֵישָֽׁם׃
16 פְּעֻלַּ֣ת צַדִּ֣יק לְחַיִּ֑ים תְּבוּאַ֖ת רָשָׁ֣ע לְחַטָּֽאת׃
17 אֹ֣רַח לְ֭חַיִּים שׁוֹמֵ֣ר מוּסָ֑ר וְעוֹזֵ֖ב תּוֹכַ֣חַת מַתְעֶֽה׃
18 מְכַסֶּ֣ה שִׂ֭נְאָה שִׂפְתֵי־שָׁ֑קֶר וּמוֹצִ֥א דִ֝בָּ֗ה ה֣וּא כְסִֽיל׃
19 בְּרֹ֣ב דְּ֭בָרִים לֹ֣א יֶחְדַּל־פָּ֑שַׁע וְחֹשֵׂ֖ךְ שְׂפָתָ֣יו מַשְׂכִּֽיל׃
20 כֶּ֣סֶף נִ֭בְחָר לְשׁ֣וֹן צַדִּ֑יק לֵ֖ב רְשָׁעִ֣ים כִּמְעָֽט׃
21 שִׂפְתֵ֣י צַ֭דִּיק יִרְע֣וּ רַבִּ֑ים וֶֽ֝אֱוִילִ֗ים בַּחֲסַר־לֵ֥ב יָמֽוּתוּ׃

Proverbs 10:6-21
Young's Literal Translation
6 Blessings [are] for the head of the righteous, And the mouth of the wicked cover doth violence.
7 The remembrance of the righteous [is] for a blessing, And the name of the wicked doth rot.
8 The wise in heart accepteth commands, And a talkative fool kicketh.
9 Whoso is walking in integrity walketh confidently, And whoso is perverting his ways is known.
10 Whoso is winking the eye giveth grief, And a talkative fool kicketh.
11 A fountain of life [is] the mouth of the righteous, And the mouth of the wicked cover doth violence.
12 Hatred awaketh contentions, And over all transgressions love covereth.
13 In the lips of the intelligent is wisdom found, And a rod [is] for the back of him who is lacking understanding.
14 The wise lay up knowledge, and the mouth of a fool [is] near ruin.
15 The wealth of the rich [is] his strong city, The ruin of the poor [is] their poverty.
16 The wage of the righteous [is] for life, The increase of the wicked for sin.
17 A traveller to life [is] he who is keeping instruction, And whoso is forsaking rebuke is erring.
18 Whoso is covering hatred with lying lips, And whoso is bringing out an evil report is a fool.
19 In the abundance of words transgression ceaseth not, And whoso is restraining his lips [is] wise.
20 The tongue of the righteous [is] chosen silver, The heart of the wicked -- as a little thing.
21 The lips of the righteous delight many, And fools for lack of heart die.

Proverbs 10:6-21
New American Standard Bible
6 (A)Blessings are on the head of the righteous,
But (B)the mouth of the wicked conceals violence.
7 The (C)mentioning of the righteous is a blessing,
But (D)the name of the wicked will rot.
8 The (E)wise of heart will receive commands,
But [a]a babbling fool will come to ruin.
9 One (F)who walks in integrity walks securely,
But (G)one who perverts his ways will be found out.
10 He (H)who winks the eye causes trouble,
And [b](I)a babbling fool will come to ruin.
11 The (J)mouth of the righteous is a fountain of life,
But (K)the mouth of the wicked conceals violence.
12 Hatred stirs up strife,
But (L)love covers all offenses.
13 On (M)the lips of the discerning, wisdom is found,
But (N)a rod is for the back of him who has no [c]sense.
14 Wise people (O)store up knowledge,
But with (P)the mouth of the foolish, ruin is at hand.
15 The (Q)rich person’s wealth is his [d]fortress,
The (R)ruin of the poor is their poverty.
16 The [e](S)wages of the righteous is life,
The income of the wicked, punishment.
17 One who (T)is on the path of life follows instruction,
But one who ignores a rebuke goes astray.
18 One (U)who conceals hatred has lying lips,
And one who spreads slander is a fool.
19 When there are (V)many words, wrongdoing is unavoidable,
But (W)one who restrains his lips is wise.
20 The tongue of the righteous is like (X)choice silver,
The heart of the wicked is worth little.
21 The (Y)lips of the righteous feed many,
But fools (Z)die for lack of [f]understanding.
