Proverbs 10
GOD’S WORD Translation
10 The proverbs of Solomon:
A Wise Son Is Righteous
A wise son makes his father happy,
but a foolish son brings grief to his mother.
2 Treasures gained dishonestly profit no one,
but righteousness rescues from death.
3 The Lord will not allow a righteous person to starve,
but he intentionally ignores the desires of a wicked person.
4 Lazy hands bring poverty,
but hard-working hands bring riches.
5 Whoever gathers in the summer is a wise son.
Whoever sleeps at harvest time brings shame.
6 Blessings cover the head of a righteous person,
but violence covers the mouths of wicked people.
7 The name of a righteous person remains blessed,
but the names of wicked people will rot away.
Proverbs Concerning the Mouth
8 The one who is truly wise accepts commands,
but the one who talks foolishly will be thrown down headfirst.
9 Whoever lives honestly will live securely,
but whoever lives dishonestly will be found out.
10 Whoever winks with his eye causes heartache.
The one who talks foolishly will be thrown down headfirst.
11 The mouth of a righteous person is a fountain of life,
but the mouths of wicked people conceal violence.
12 Hate starts quarrels,
but love covers every wrong.
13 Wisdom is found on the lips of a person who has understanding,
but a rod is for the back of one without sense.
14 Those who are wise store up knowledge,
but the mouth of a stubborn fool invites ruin.
15 The rich person’s wealth is ⌞his⌟ strong city.
Poverty ruins the poor.
16 A righteous person’s reward is life.
A wicked person’s harvest is sin.
17 Whoever practices discipline is on the way to life,
but whoever ignores a warning strays.
18 Whoever conceals hatred has lying lips.
Whoever spreads slander is a fool.
19 Sin is unavoidable when there is much talk,
but whoever seals his lips is wise.
20 The tongue of a righteous person is pure silver.
The hearts of wicked people are worthless.
21 The lips of a righteous person feed many,
but stubborn fools die because they have no sense.
22 It is the Lord’s blessing that makes a person rich,
and hard work adds nothing to it.
23 Like the laughter of a fool when he carries out an evil plan,
so is wisdom to a person who has understanding.
Righteous People Contrasted to Wicked People
24 That which wicked people dread happens to them,
but ⌞the Lord⌟ grants the desire of righteous people.
25 When the storm has passed, the wicked person has vanished,
but the righteous person has an everlasting foundation.
26 Like vinegar to the teeth,
like smoke to the eyes,
so is the lazy person to those who send him ⌞on a mission⌟.
27 The fear of the Lord lengthens ⌞the number of⌟ days,
but the years of wicked people are shortened.
28 The hope of righteous people ⌞leads to⌟ joy,
but the eager waiting of wicked people comes to nothing.
29 The way of the Lord is a fortress for an innocent person
but a ruin to those who are troublemakers.
30 A righteous person will never be moved,
but wicked people will not continue to live in the land.
31 The mouth of a righteous person increases wisdom,
but a devious tongue will be cut off.
32 The lips of a righteous person announce good will,
but the mouths of wicked people are devious.

8 The wise in heart will receive commandments: but a prating fool shall fall.

Contraste entre el justo y el malvado
10 Los proverbios de Salomón.
El hijo sabio alegra al padre,
Pero el hijo necio es tristeza de su madre.
2 Los tesoros de maldad no serán de provecho;
Mas la justicia libra de muerte.
3 Jehová no dejará padecer hambre al justo;
Mas la iniquidad lanzará a los impíos.
4 La mano negligente empobrece;
Mas la mano de los diligentes enriquece.
5 El que recoge en el verano es hombre entendido;
El que duerme en el tiempo de la siega es hijo que avergüenza.
6 Hay bendiciones sobre la cabeza del justo;
Pero violencia cubrirá la boca de los impíos.
7 La memoria del justo será bendita;
Mas el nombre de los impíos se pudrirá.
8 El sabio de corazón recibirá los mandamientos;
Mas el necio de labios caerá.
9 El que camina en integridad anda confiado;
Mas el que pervierte sus caminos será quebrantado.
10 El que guiña el ojo acarrea tristeza;
Y el necio de labios será castigado.
11 Manantial de vida es la boca del justo;
Pero violencia cubrirá la boca de los impíos.
12 El odio despierta rencillas;
Pero el amor cubrirá todas las faltas.(A)
13 En los labios del prudente se halla sabiduría;
Mas la vara es para las espaldas del falto de cordura.
14 Los sabios guardan la sabiduría;
Mas la boca del necio es calamidad cercana.
15 Las riquezas del rico son su ciudad fortificada;
Y el desmayo de los pobres es su pobreza.
16 La obra del justo es para vida;
Mas el fruto del impío es para pecado.
17 Camino a la vida es guardar la instrucción;
Pero quien desecha la reprensión, yerra.
18 El que encubre el odio es de labios mentirosos;
Y el que propaga calumnia es necio.
19 En las muchas palabras no falta pecado;
Mas el que refrena sus labios es prudente.
20 Plata escogida es la lengua del justo;
Mas el corazón de los impíos es como nada.
21 Los labios del justo apacientan a muchos,
Mas los necios mueren por falta de entendimiento.
22 La bendición de Jehová es la que enriquece,
Y no añade tristeza con ella.
23 El hacer maldad es como una diversión al insensato;
Mas la sabiduría recrea al hombre de entendimiento.
24 Lo que el impío teme, eso le vendrá;
Pero a los justos les será dado lo que desean.
25 Como pasa el torbellino, así el malo no permanece;
Mas el justo permanece para siempre.
26 Como el vinagre a los dientes, y como el humo a los ojos,
Así es el perezoso a los que lo envían.
27 El temor de Jehová aumentará los días;
Mas los años de los impíos serán acortados.
28 La esperanza de los justos es alegría;
Mas la esperanza de los impíos perecerá.
29 El camino de Jehová es fortaleza al perfecto;
Pero es destrucción a los que hacen maldad.
30 El justo no será removido jamás;
Pero los impíos no habitarán la tierra.
31 La boca del justo producirá sabiduría;
Mas la lengua perversa será cortada.
32 Los labios del justo saben hablar lo que agrada;
Mas la boca de los impíos habla perversidades.

Притчи 10
Russian Synodal Version
10 Притчи Соломона. Сын мудрый радует отца, а сын глупый--огорчение для его матери.
2 Не доставляют пользы сокровища неправедные, правда же избавляет от смерти.
3 Не допустит Господь терпеть голод душе праведного, стяжание же нечестивых исторгнет.
4 Ленивая рука делает бедным, а рука прилежных обогащает.
5 Собирающий во время лета--сын разумный, спящий же во время жатвы--сын беспутный.
6 Благословения--на голове праведника, уста же беззаконных заградит насилие.
7 Память праведника пребудет благословенна, а имя нечестивых омерзеет.
8 Мудрый сердцем принимает заповеди, а глупый устами преткнется.
9 Кто ходит в непорочности, тот ходит безопасно; а кто превращает пути свои, тот будет наказан.
10 Кто мигает глазами, тот причиняет досаду, а глупый устами преткнется.
11 Уста праведника--источник жизни, уста же беззаконных заградит насилие.
12 Ненависть возбуждает раздоры, но любовь покрывает все грехи.
13 В устах разумного находится мудрость, но на теле глупого--розга.
14 Мудрые сберегают знание, но уста глупого--близкая погибель.
15 Имущество богатого--крепкий город его, беда для бедных--скудость их.
16 Труды праведного--к жизни, успех нечестивого--ко греху.
17 Кто хранит наставление, тот на пути к жизни; а отвергающий обличение--блуждает.
18 Кто скрывает ненависть, у того уста лживые; и кто разглашает клевету, тот глуп.
19 При многословии не миновать греха, а сдерживающий уста свои--разумен.
20 Отборное серебро--язык праведного, сердце же нечестивых--ничтожество.
21 Уста праведного пасут многих, а глупые умирают от недостатка разума.
22 Благословение Господне--оно обогащает и печали с собою не приносит.
23 Для глупого преступное деяние как бы забава, а человеку разумному свойственна мудрость.
24 Чего страшится нечестивый, то и постигнет его, а желание праведников исполнится.
25 Как проносится вихрь, [так] нет более нечестивого; а праведник--на вечном основании.
26 Что уксус для зубов и дым для глаз, то ленивый для посылающих его.
27 Страх Господень прибавляет дней, лета же нечестивых сократятся.
28 Ожидание праведников--радость, а надежда нечестивых погибнет.
29 Путь Господень--твердыня для непорочного и страх для делающих беззаконие.
30 Праведник во веки не поколеблется, нечестивые же не поживут на земле.
31 Уста праведника источают мудрость, а язык зловредный отсечется.
32 Уста праведного знают благоприятное, а уста нечестивых--развращенное.
