Proverbios 27
Reina-Valera 1960
27 No te jactes del día de mañana;
Porque no sabes qué dará de sí el día.(A)
2 Alábete el extraño, y no tu propia boca;
El ajeno, y no los labios tuyos.
3 Pesada es la piedra, y la arena pesa;
Mas la ira del necio es más pesada que ambas.
4 Cruel es la ira, e impetuoso el furor;
Mas ¿quién podrá sostenerse delante de la envidia?
5 Mejor es reprensión manifiesta
Que amor oculto.
6 Fieles son las heridas del que ama;
Pero importunos los besos del que aborrece.
7 El hombre saciado desprecia el panal de miel;
Pero al hambriento todo lo amargo es dulce.
8 Cual ave que se va de su nido,
Tal es el hombre que se va de su lugar.
9 El ungüento y el perfume alegran el corazón,
Y el cordial consejo del amigo, al hombre.
10 No dejes a tu amigo, ni al amigo de tu padre;
Ni vayas a la casa de tu hermano en el día de tu aflicción.
Mejor es el vecino cerca que el hermano lejos.
11 Sé sabio, hijo mío, y alegra mi corazón,
Y tendré qué responder al que me agravie.
12 El avisado ve el mal y se esconde;
Mas los simples pasan y llevan el daño.
13 Quítale su ropa al que salió fiador por el extraño;
Y al que fía 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 Pretender contenerla es como refrenar el viento,
O sujetar el aceite en la mano derecha.
17 Hierro con hierro se aguza;
Y así el hombre aguza el rostro de su amigo.
18 Quien cuida la higuera comerá su fruto,
Y el que mira por los intereses de su señor, tendrá honra.
19 Como en el agua el rostro corresponde al rostro,
Así el corazón del hombre al del hombre.
20 El Seol y el Abadón 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 necio en un mortero entre granos de trigo majados con el pisón,
No se apartará de él su necedad.
23 Sé diligente en conocer el estado de tus ovejas,
Y mira con cuidado por tus rebaños;
24 Porque las riquezas no duran 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 para el precio del campo;
27 Y abundancia de leche de las cabras para tu mantenimiento, para mantenimiento de tu casa,
Y para sustento de tus criadas.
Proverbs 27
New International Version
Proverbs 27
New International Version
2 Let someone else praise you, and not your own mouth;
an outsider, and not your own lips.(C)
3 Stone is heavy and sand(D) a burden,
but a fool’s provocation is heavier than both.
4 Anger is cruel and fury overwhelming,
but who can stand before jealousy?(E)
5 Better is open rebuke
than hidden love.
6 Wounds from a friend can be trusted,
but an enemy multiplies kisses.(F)
7 One who is full loathes honey from the comb,
but to the hungry even what is bitter tastes sweet.
8 Like a bird that flees its nest(G)
is anyone who flees from home.
9 Perfume(H) and incense bring joy to the heart,
and the pleasantness of a friend
springs from their heartfelt advice.
10 Do not forsake your friend or a friend of your family,
and do not go to your relative’s house when disaster(I) strikes you—
better a neighbor nearby than a relative far away.
11 Be wise, my son, and bring joy to my heart;(J)
then I can answer anyone who treats me with contempt.(K)
12 The prudent see danger and take refuge,
but the simple keep going and pay the penalty.(L)
13 Take the garment of one who puts up security for a stranger;
hold it in pledge if it is done for an outsider.(M)
14 If anyone loudly blesses their neighbor early in the morning,
it will be taken as a curse.
15 A quarrelsome wife is like the dripping(N)
of a leaky roof in a rainstorm;
16 restraining her is like restraining the wind
or grasping oil with the hand.
17 As iron sharpens iron,
so one person sharpens another.
18 The one who guards a fig tree will eat its fruit,(O)
and whoever protects their master will be honored.(P)
19 As water reflects the face,
so one’s life reflects the heart.[a]
21 The crucible for silver and the furnace for gold,(S)
but people are tested by their praise.
22 Though you grind a fool in a mortar,
grinding them like grain with a pestle,
you will not remove their folly from them.
23 Be sure you know the condition of your flocks,(T)
give careful attention to your herds;
24 for riches do not endure forever,(U)
and a crown is not secure for all generations.
25 When the hay is removed and new growth appears
and the grass from the hills is gathered in,
26 the lambs will provide you with clothing,
and the goats with the price of a field.
27 You will have plenty of goats’ milk to feed your family
and to nourish your female servants.

All about Life
27 Do not brag about tomorrow,
because you do not know what another day may bring.
2 Praise should come from another person
and not from your own mouth,
from a stranger and not from your own lips.
3 A stone is heavy, and sand weighs a lot,
but annoyance caused by a stubborn fool is heavier than both.
4 Anger is cruel, and fury is overwhelming,
but who can survive jealousy?
5 Open criticism is better than unexpressed love.
6 Wounds made by a friend are intended to help,
but an enemy’s kisses are too much to bear.
7 One who is full despises honey,
but to one who is hungry,
even bitter food tastes sweet.
8 Like a bird wandering from its nest,
so is a husband wandering from his home.
9 Perfume and incense make the heart glad,
but the sweetness of a friend is a fragrant forest.[a]
10 Do not abandon your friend or your father’s friend.
Do not go to a relative’s home when you are in trouble.
A neighbor living nearby is better than a relative far away.
11 Be wise, my son, and make my heart glad
so that I can answer anyone who criticizes me.
12 Sensible people foresee trouble and hide.
Gullible people go ahead ⌞and⌟ suffer.
13 Hold on to the garment of one who guarantees a stranger’s loan,
and hold responsible the person
who makes a loan in behalf of a foreigner.
14 Whoever blesses his friend early in the morning with a loud voice—
his blessing is considered a curse.
15 Constantly dripping water on a rainy day is like a quarreling woman.
16 Whoever can control her can control the wind.
He can even pick up olive oil with his right hand.
17 ⌞As⌟ iron sharpens iron,
so one person sharpens the wits of another.
18 Whoever takes care of a fig tree can eat its fruit,
and whoever protects his master is honored.
19 As a face is reflected in water,
so a person is reflected by his heart.
20 Hell and decay are never satisfied,
and a person’s eyes are never satisfied.
21 The crucible is for refining silver and the smelter for gold,
but a person ⌞is tested⌟ by the praise given to him.
22 If you crush a stubborn fool in a mortar with a pestle along with grain,
⌞even then⌟ his stupidity will not leave him.
23 Be fully aware of the condition of your flock,
and pay close attention to your herds.
24 Wealth is not forever.
Nor does a crown last from one generation to the next.
25 ⌞When⌟ grass is cut short, the tender growth appears,
and vegetables are gathered on the hills.
26 Lambs ⌞will provide⌟ you with clothing,
and the money from the male goats will buy a field.
27 There will be enough goat milk to feed you,
to feed your family,
and to keep your servant girls alive.
