Proverbios 12
La Biblia de las Américas
12 Él que ama la instrucción[a] ama el conocimiento,
pero el que odia la reprensión es torpe.
2 El bueno alcanzará el favor del Señor(A),
mas Él condenará al hombre de malos designios.
3 El hombre no se afianzará por medio de la impiedad(B),
y la raíz de los justos no será removida(C).
4 La mujer virtuosa es corona de su marido(D),
mas la que lo avergüenza es como podredumbre en sus huesos(E).
5 Los pensamientos de los justos son rectos,
los consejos de los impíos, engañosos.
6 Las palabras de los impíos son asechanzas sangrientas(F),
pero a los rectos su boca los librará(G).
7 Los impíos son derribados y ya no existen(H),
pero la casa de los justos permanecerá(I).
8 El hombre será alabado conforme a su discernimiento,
pero el perverso de corazón será despreciado.
9 Más vale el poco estimado que tiene siervo,
que el que se alaba y carece de pan.
10 El justo se preocupa de la vida de su ganado(J),
pero las entrañas de los impíos son crueles.
11 Él que labra su tierra se saciará de pan(K),
pero el que persigue lo vano carece de entendimiento[b].
12 El impío codicia el botín[c] de los malos(L),
pero la raíz de los justos da fruto(M).
13 En la transgresión de sus labios se enreda el malvado[d],
pero el justo escapará del apuro(N).
14 Por el fruto de su boca cada cual se saciará de bien(O),
y las obras de las manos del hombre volverán a él(P).
15 El camino del necio es recto a sus propios ojos(Q),
mas el que escucha consejos es sabio.
16 El enojo del necio(R) se conoce al instante,
mas el prudente oculta la deshonra.
17 Él que habla[e] verdad declara lo que es justo,
pero el testigo falso, falsedad.
18 Hay quien habla sin tino como golpes de espada(S),
pero la lengua de los sabios sana(T).
19 Los labios veraces permanecerán para siempre,
pero la lengua mentirosa, solo por un momento(U).
20 Hay engaño en el corazón de los que traman el mal,
y gozo en los consejeros de paz.
21 Ningún daño sobreviene al justo(V),
mas los impíos están llenos de pesares.
22 Los labios mentirosos son abominación al Señor(W),
pero los que obran fielmente son su deleite.
23 El hombre prudente oculta su conocimiento,
pero el corazón de los necios proclama su necedad(X).
24 La mano de los diligentes gobernará,
pero la indolencia será sujeta a trabajos forzados(Y).
25 La ansiedad en el corazón del hombre lo deprime(Z),
mas la buena palabra(AA) lo alegra.
26 El justo es guía para su prójimo,
pero el camino de los impíos los extravía.
27 El indolente[f] no asa[g] su presa,
pero la posesión más preciosa del hombre es la diligencia(AB).
28 En la senda de la justicia está la vida(AC),
y en su camino no hay muerte.

Proverbs 12
King James Version
Proverbs 12
King James Version
12 Whoso loveth instruction loveth knowledge: but he that hateth reproof is brutish.
2 A good man obtaineth favour of the Lord: but a man of wicked devices will he condemn.
3 A man shall not be established by wickedness: but the root of the righteous shall not be moved.
4 A virtuous woman is a crown to her husband: but she that maketh ashamed is as rottenness in his bones.
5 The thoughts of the righteous are right: but the counsels of the wicked are deceit.
6 The words of the wicked are to lie in wait for blood: but the mouth of the upright shall deliver them.
7 The wicked are overthrown, and are not: but the house of the righteous shall stand.
8 A man shall be commended according to his wisdom: but he that is of a perverse heart shall be despised.
9 He that is despised, and hath a servant, is better than he that honoureth himself, and lacketh bread.
10 A righteous man regardeth the life of his beast: but the tender mercies of the wicked are cruel.
11 He that tilleth his land shall be satisfied with bread: but he that followeth vain persons is void of understanding.
12 The wicked desireth the net of evil men: but the root of the righteous yieldeth fruit.
13 The wicked is snared by the transgression of his lips: but the just shall come out of trouble.
14 A man shall be satisfied with good by the fruit of his mouth: and the recompence of a man's hands shall be rendered unto him.
15 The way of a fool is right in his own eyes: but he that hearkeneth unto counsel is wise.
16 A fool's wrath is presently known: but a prudent man covereth shame.
17 He that speaketh truth sheweth forth righteousness: but a false witness deceit.
18 There is that speaketh like the piercings of a sword: but the tongue of the wise is health.
19 The lip of truth shall be established for ever: but a lying tongue is but for a moment.
20 Deceit is in the heart of them that imagine evil: but to the counsellors of peace is joy.
21 There shall no evil happen to the just: but the wicked shall be filled with mischief.
22 Lying lips are abomination to the Lord: but they that deal truly are his delight.
23 A prudent man concealeth knowledge: but the heart of fools proclaimeth foolishness.
24 The hand of the diligent shall bear rule: but the slothful shall be under tribute.
25 Heaviness in the heart of man maketh it stoop: but a good word maketh it glad.
26 The righteous is more excellent than his neighbour: but the way of the wicked seduceth them.
27 The slothful man roasteth not that which he took in hunting: but the substance of a diligent man is precious.
28 In the way of righteousness is life: and in the pathway thereof there is no death.
Proverbs 12
New International Version
Proverbs 12
New International Version
12 Whoever loves discipline loves knowledge,
but whoever hates correction is stupid.(A)
3 No one can be established through wickedness,
but the righteous cannot be uprooted.(D)
4 A wife of noble character(E) is her husband’s crown,
but a disgraceful wife is like decay in his bones.(F)
5 The plans of the righteous are just,
but the advice of the wicked is deceitful.
6 The words of the wicked lie in wait for blood,
but the speech of the upright rescues them.(G)
8 A person is praised according to their prudence,
and one with a warped(J) mind is despised.
9 Better to be a nobody and yet have a servant
than pretend to be somebody and have no food.
10 The righteous care for the needs of their animals,(K)
but the kindest acts of the wicked are cruel.
11 Those who work their land will have abundant food,
but those who chase fantasies have no sense.(L)
12 The wicked desire the stronghold of evildoers,
but the root of the righteous endures.
14 From the fruit of their lips people are filled with good things,(O)
and the work of their hands brings them reward.(P)
17 An honest witness tells the truth,
but a false witness tells lies.(V)
19 Truthful lips endure forever,
but a lying tongue lasts only a moment.
20 Deceit is in the hearts of those who plot evil,
but those who promote peace have joy.(Y)
21 No harm overtakes the righteous,(Z)
but the wicked have their fill of trouble.
24 Diligent hands will rule,
but laziness ends in forced labor.(AF)
25 Anxiety weighs down the heart,(AG)
but a kind word cheers it up.
26 The righteous choose their friends carefully,
but the way of the wicked leads them astray.(AH)
27 The lazy do not roast[a] any game,
but the diligent feed on the riches of the hunt.
28 In the way of righteousness there is life;(AI)
along that path is immortality.
