Proverbios 27
Biblia del Jubileo
27 ¶ No te jactes del día de mañana; porque no sabes qué dará de sí el día.
2 ¶ Alábete el extraño, y no tu boca; el ajeno, y no tus labios.
3 ¶ Pesada es la piedra, y la arena pesa; mas la ira del loco es más pesada que ambas cosas.
4 Cruel es la ira, e impetuoso el furor; mas ¿quién parará delante de la envidia?
5 ¶ Mejor es la reprensión manifiesta que el amor oculto.
6 Fieles son las heridas del que ama; pero importunos los besos del que aborrece.
7 ¶ El alma saciada desprecia el panal de miel; mas al alma hambrienta todo lo amargo es dulce.
8 ¶ Como el ave se va de su nido, así es el hombre que se va de su lugar.
9 ¶ El ungüento y el incienso alegran el corazón; así la dulzura del amigo con el consejo del alma.
10 No dejes a tu amigo, ni al amigo de tu padre; ni entres en casa de tu hermano el día de tu aflicción. Mejor es el vecino cerca que el hermano lejano.
11 ¶ Sé sabio, hijo mío, y alegra mi corazón, y tendré qué responder al que me deshonrare.
12 ¶ El avisado ve el mal, y se esconde, mas los simples pasan, y llevan el daño.
13 ¶ Quítale su ropa al que fio al extraño; y al que fio a la extraña, tómale prenda.
14 ¶ El que bendice a su amigo en alta voz, madrugando de mañana, por maldición se le contará.
15 ¶ Gotera continua en tiempo de lluvia, y la mujer rencillosa, son semejantes;
16 el que la escondió, escondió el viento; porque el aceite en su mano derecha clama.
17 ¶ Hierro con hierro se aguza; y el hombre le da ánimo a su amigo.
18 ¶ El que guarda la higuera, comerá su fruto; y el que guarda a su señor, será honrado.
19 ¶ Como en agua el rostro corresponde al rostro, así el corazón del hombre al hombre.
20 ¶ El Seol y el infierno nunca se sacian; así los ojos del hombre nunca están satisfechos.
21 ¶ El crisol prueba la plata, y la hornaza el oro; y al hombre la boca del que lo alaba.
22 ¶ Aunque majes al loco en un mortero entre granos de trigo a pisón majados, no se quitará de él su locura.
23 ¶ Considera atentamente el rostro de tus ovejas; pon tu corazón al ganado;
24 porque las riquezas no son para siempre; ¿Y será la corona para perpetuas generaciones?
25 Saldrá la grama, aparecerá la hierba, y se segarán las hierbas de los montes.
26 Los corderos son para tus vestidos, y los cabritos son para el precio del campo;
27 y abundancia de leche de las cabras para tu mantenimiento, y para mantenimiento de tu casa, y para sustento de tus criadas.
Proverbs 27
English Standard Version
27 Do not boast about tomorrow,
(A)for you do not know what a day may bring.
2 Let (B)another praise you, and not your own mouth;
a stranger, and not your own lips.
3 A stone is heavy, and sand is weighty,
but (C)a fool's provocation is heavier than both.
4 Wrath is cruel, anger is overwhelming,
but who can stand before (D)jealousy?
5 (E)Better is open rebuke
than hidden love.
6 Faithful are (F)the wounds of a friend;
profuse are the kisses of an enemy.
7 One who is full loathes (G)honey,
but to one who is hungry everything bitter is sweet.
8 Like (H)a bird that strays from its nest
is a man who strays from his home.
9 (I)Oil and perfume make the heart glad,
and the sweetness of a friend comes from his earnest counsel.[a]
10 Do not forsake your friend and (J)your father's friend,
and do not go to your brother's house in the day of your calamity.
(K)Better is a neighbor who is near
than a brother who is far away.
11 (L)Be wise, (M)my son, and (N)make my heart glad,
that I may (O)answer him who reproaches me.
12 (P)The prudent sees danger and hides himself,
but (Q)the simple go on and suffer for it.
13 (R)Take a man's garment when he has put up security for a stranger,
and hold it in pledge when he puts up security for an adulteress.[b]
14 Whoever blesses his neighbor with a loud voice,
rising early in the morning,
will be counted as cursing.
15 (S)A continual dripping on a rainy day
and a quarrelsome wife are alike;
16 to restrain her is to restrain the wind
or to grasp[c] oil in one's right hand.
17 Iron sharpens iron,
and one man sharpens another.[d]
18 (T)Whoever tends a fig tree will eat its fruit,
and he who (U)guards his master will be honored.
19 As in water face reflects face,
so the heart of man reflects the man.
20 (V)Sheol and Abaddon are (W)never satisfied,
and (X)never satisfied are the eyes of man.
21 (Y)The crucible is for silver, and the furnace is for gold,
and a man is tested by his praise.
22 (Z)Crush a fool in a mortar with a pestle
along with crushed grain,
yet his folly will not depart from him.
23 (AA)Know well the condition of your flocks,
and (AB)give attention to your herds,
24 for (AC)riches do not last forever;
and does a crown endure to all generations?
25 (AD)When the grass is gone and the new growth appears
and the vegetation of the mountains is gathered,
26 (AE)the lambs will provide your clothing,
and the goats the price of a field.
27 (AF)There will be enough goats' milk for your food,
for the food of your household
and maintenance for your girls.
