15 Mildt svar stiller harme, men et sårende ord vekker vrede.
2 De vises tunge gir god kunnskap, men dårenes munn lar dårskap strømme ut.
3 Herrens øine er allesteds, de ser både efter onde og efter gode.
4 En saktmodig tunge er et livsens tre, men en falsk tunge sårer hjertet.
5 Dåren forakter sin fars tukt, men den som akter på tilrettevisning, er klok.
6 I den rettferdiges hus er det meget gods, men den ugudeliges inntekt blir til ødeleggelse for ham.
7 De vises leber strør ut kunnskap, men dårenes sinn er ikke rett.
8 De ugudeliges offer er en vederstyggelighet for Herren, men de opriktiges bønn er ham til velbehag.
9 Den ugudeliges vei er en vederstyggelighet for Herren, men den som jager efter rettferdighet, elsker han.
10 Hård straff rammer den som forlater den rette sti; den som hater tilrettevisning, skal dø.
11 Dødsriket og avgrunnen ligger åpne for Herren, hvor meget mere da menneskenes hjerter!
12 En spotter liker ikke å bli irettesatt; til de vise går han ikke.
13 Et glad hjerte gjør åsynet lyst, men hjertesorg bryter motet ned.
14 Den forstandiges hjerte søker kunnskap, men dårers munn farer bare med dårskap.
15 Alle den ulykkeliges dager er onde, men et glad hjerte er et stadig gjestebud.
16 Bedre er lite med Herrens frykt enn en stor skatt med uro.
17 Bedre er en rett grønt med kjærlighet enn en fet okse med hat.
18 En hissig mann vekker trette men den langmodige stiller kiv.
19 Den lates vei er som en tornehekk, men de opriktiges vei er ryddet.
20 En vis sønn gleder sin far, men et uforstandig menneske forakter sin mor.
21 Dårskap er en glede for den som er uten forstand; men en forstandig mann går rett frem.
22 Planer blir til intet uten rådslagning; men hvor det er mange rådgivere, har de fremgang.
23 En mann gleder sig når hans munn kan gi svar, og hvor godt er ikke et ord i rette tid!
24 Den forstandige går livets vei opover for å undgå dødsriket der nede.
25 Herren river ned de overmodiges hus, men enkens markskjell lar han stå fast.
26 Den ondes råd er en vederstyggelighet for Herren, men milde ord er rene for ham.
27 Den som jager efter vinning, setter sitt hus i ulag, men den som hater gaver[a], skal leve.
28 Den rettferdige tenker i sitt hjerte på hvorledes han skal svare, men de ugudeliges munn lar onde ting strømme ut.
29 Herren er langt borte fra de ugudelige, men de rettferdiges bønn hører han.
30 Øinenes lys[b] gleder hjertet; godt budskap gir benene marg.
31 Den hvis øre hører på tilrettevisning til livet, dveler gjerne blandt vise.
32 Den som ikke vil vite av tukt, forakter sitt liv, men den som hører på tilrettevisning, vinner forstand.
33 Herrens frykt er tukt til visdom, og ydmykhet går forut for ære.

Proverbs 15
King James Version
Proverbs 15
King James Version
15 A soft answer turneth away wrath: but grievous words stir up anger.
2 The tongue of the wise useth knowledge aright: but the mouth of fools poureth out foolishness.
3 The eyes of the Lord are in every place, beholding the evil and the good.
4 A wholesome tongue is a tree of life: but perverseness therein is a breach in the spirit.
5 A fool despiseth his father's instruction: but he that regardeth reproof is prudent.
6 In the house of the righteous is much treasure: but in the revenues of the wicked is trouble.
7 The lips of the wise disperse knowledge: but the heart of the foolish doeth not so.
8 The sacrifice of the wicked is an abomination to the Lord: but the prayer of the upright is his delight.
9 The way of the wicked is an abomination unto the Lord: but he loveth him that followeth after righteousness.
10 Correction is grievous unto him that forsaketh the way: and he that hateth reproof shall die.
11 Hell and destruction are before the Lord: how much more then the hearts of the children of men?
12 A scorner loveth not one that reproveth him: neither will he go unto the wise.
13 A merry heart maketh a cheerful countenance: but by sorrow of the heart the spirit is broken.
14 The heart of him that hath understanding seeketh knowledge: but the mouth of fools feedeth on foolishness.
15 All the days of the afflicted are evil: but he that is of a merry heart hath a continual feast.
16 Better is little with the fear of the Lord than great treasure and trouble therewith.
17 Better is a dinner of herbs where love is, than a stalled ox and hatred therewith.
18 A wrathful man stirreth up strife: but he that is slow to anger appeaseth strife.
19 The way of the slothful man is as an hedge of thorns: but the way of the righteous is made plain.
20 A wise son maketh a glad father: but a foolish man despiseth his mother.
21 Folly is joy to him that is destitute of wisdom: but a man of understanding walketh uprightly.
22 Without counsel purposes are disappointed: but in the multitude of counsellors they are established.
23 A man hath joy by the answer of his mouth: and a word spoken in due season, how good is it!
24 The way of life is above to the wise, that he may depart from hell beneath.
25 The Lord will destroy the house of the proud: but he will establish the border of the widow.
26 The thoughts of the wicked are an abomination to the Lord: but the words of the pure are pleasant words.
27 He that is greedy of gain troubleth his own house; but he that hateth gifts shall live.
28 The heart of the righteous studieth to answer: but the mouth of the wicked poureth out evil things.
29 The Lord is far from the wicked: but he heareth the prayer of the righteous.
30 The light of the eyes rejoiceth the heart: and a good report maketh the bones fat.
31 The ear that heareth the reproof of life abideth among the wise.
32 He that refuseth instruction despiseth his own soul: but he that heareth reproof getteth understanding.
33 The fear of the Lord is the instruction of wisdom; and before honour is humility.
