Salomos Ordsprog 19
Det Norsk Bibelselskap 1930
19 Bedre er en fattig som vandrer i ustraffelighet, enn en mann med falske leber, som tillike er en dåre.
2 Også den som ikke bruker omtanke, går det ille, og den som er for snar på foten, treder feil.
3 Menneskets egen dårskap ødelegger hans vei, men i sitt hjerte vredes han på Herren.
4 Rikdom skaper mange venner, den fattige blir skilt fra sin venn.
5 Et falskt vidne skal ikke bli ustraffet, og den som taler løgn, skal ikke komme unda.
6 Mange smigrer for den gavmilde, og enhver er venn med den som er rundhåndet.
7 Den fattiges frender hater ham alle; enda mere holder hans venner sig borte fra ham. Han jager efter ord som ikke er å finne.
8 Den som vinner forstand, elsker sitt liv; den som holder fast ved visdom, finner lykke.
9 Et falskt vidne skal ikke bli ustraffet, og den som taler løgn, skal omkomme.
10 Vellevnet høver ikke for en dåre, enda mindre høver det for en træl å herske over fyrster.
11 Et menneskes klokskap gjør ham langmodig, og det er hans ære at han overser krenkelser.
12 En konges vrede er som løvens brøl, men hans yndest som dugg på urter.
13 En uforstandig sønn er bare til ulykke for sin far, og en kvinnes tretter er et stadig takdrypp.
14 Hus og gods er en arv fra foreldre, men en forstandig kvinne er en gave fra Herren.
15 Dovenskap senker i dyp søvn, og den late skal hungre.
16 Den som holder budet, holder sig selv i live; den som ikke akter på sin ferd, skal miste sitt liv.
17 Den som forbarmer sig over den fattige, låner til Herren, og Herren skal gjengjelde ham hans velgjerning.
18 Tukt din sønn, for det er ennu håp; men la dig ikke drive til å drepe ham!
19 Den hvis vrede er stor, bør bøte; for dersom du hjelper ham, får du gjøre det atter og atter.
20 Hør på råd og ta imot tukt, så du kan bli vis til slutt!
21 Det er mange tanker i en manns hjerte, men Herrens råd skal få fremgang.
22 Et menneskes miskunnhet er hans glede, og en fattig er lykkeligere enn en stormann som lyver.
23 Herrens frykt fører til liv, og mett får en gå til hvile uten å bli hjemsøkt med ulykke.
24 Den late stikker sin hånd i fatet, men fører den ikke engang tilbake til sin munn.
25 Slå spotteren, så vil den uforstandige bli klok; vis den forstandige til rette, så vil han komme til innsikt og kunnskap.
26 Den som bruker vold mot sin far og jager sin mor bort, er en dårlig, en skamløs sønn.
27 Hold op, min sønn, med å høre på formaning, når du allikevel bare forviller dig bort fra kunnskaps ord!
28 Et ugudelig vidne spotter det som rett er, og de gudløses munn sluker urett.
29 Straffedommer er fastsatt for spotterne og pryl for dårers rygg.
Proverbs 19
King James Version
Proverbs 19
King James Version
19 Better is the poor that walketh in his integrity, than he that is perverse in his lips, and is a fool.
2 Also, that the soul be without knowledge, it is not good; and he that hasteth with his feet sinneth.
3 The foolishness of man perverteth his way: and his heart fretteth against the Lord.
4 Wealth maketh many friends; but the poor is separated from his neighbour.
5 A false witness shall not be unpunished, and he that speaketh lies shall not escape.
6 Many will intreat the favour of the prince: and every man is a friend to him that giveth gifts.
7 All the brethren of the poor do hate him: how much more do his friends go far from him? he pursueth them with words, yet they are wanting to him.
8 He that getteth wisdom loveth his own soul: he that keepeth understanding shall find good.
9 A false witness shall not be unpunished, and he that speaketh lies shall perish.
10 Delight is not seemly for a fool; much less for a servant to have rule over princes.
11 The discretion of a man deferreth his anger; and it is his glory to pass over a transgression.
12 The king's wrath is as the roaring of a lion; but his favour is as dew upon the grass.
13 A foolish son is the calamity of his father: and the contentions of a wife are a continual dropping.
14 House and riches are the inheritance of fathers: and a prudent wife is from the Lord.
15 Slothfulness casteth into a deep sleep; and an idle soul shall suffer hunger.
16 He that keepeth the commandment keepeth his own soul; but he that despiseth his ways shall die.
17 He that hath pity upon the poor lendeth unto the Lord; and that which he hath given will he pay him again.
18 Chasten thy son while there is hope, and let not thy soul spare for his crying.
19 A man of great wrath shall suffer punishment: for if thou deliver him, yet thou must do it again.
20 Hear counsel, and receive instruction, that thou mayest be wise in thy latter end.
21 There are many devices in a man's heart; nevertheless the counsel of the Lord, that shall stand.
22 The desire of a man is his kindness: and a poor man is better than a liar.
23 The fear of the Lord tendeth to life: and he that hath it shall abide satisfied; he shall not be visited with evil.
24 A slothful man hideth his hand in his bosom, and will not so much as bring it to his mouth again.
25 Smite a scorner, and the simple will beware: and reprove one that hath understanding, and he will understand knowledge.
26 He that wasteth his father, and chaseth away his mother, is a son that causeth shame, and bringeth reproach.
27 Cease, my son, to hear the instruction that causeth to err from the words of knowledge.
28 An ungodly witness scorneth judgment: and the mouth of the wicked devoureth iniquity.
29 Judgments are prepared for scorners, and stripes for the back of fools.
Proverbs 19
New International Version
Proverbs 19
New International Version
19 Better the poor whose walk is blameless
than a fool whose lips are perverse.(A)
2 Desire without knowledge is not good—
how much more will hasty feet miss the way!(B)
4 Wealth attracts many friends,
but even the closest friend of the poor person deserts them.(E)
7 The poor are shunned by all their relatives—
how much more do their friends avoid them!(K)
Though the poor pursue them with pleading,
they are nowhere to be found.[a](L)
8 The one who gets wisdom loves life;
the one who cherishes understanding will soon prosper.(M)
9 A false witness will not go unpunished,
and whoever pours out lies will perish.(N)
10 It is not fitting for a fool(O) to live in luxury—
how much worse for a slave to rule over princes!(P)
11 A person’s wisdom yields patience;(Q)
it is to one’s glory to overlook an offense.
13 A foolish child is a father’s ruin,(U)
and a quarrelsome wife is like
the constant dripping of a leaky roof.(V)
15 Laziness brings on deep sleep,
and the shiftless go hungry.(Y)
16 Whoever keeps commandments keeps their life,
but whoever shows contempt for their ways will die.(Z)
17 Whoever is kind to the poor lends to the Lord,(AA)
and he will reward them for what they have done.(AB)
18 Discipline your children, for in that there is hope;
do not be a willing party to their death.(AC)
19 A hot-tempered person must pay the penalty;
rescue them, and you will have to do it again.
20 Listen to advice and accept discipline,(AD)
and at the end you will be counted among the wise.(AE)
21 Many are the plans in a person’s heart,
but it is the Lord’s purpose that prevails.(AF)
22 What a person desires is unfailing love[b];
better to be poor than a liar.
23 The fear of the Lord leads to life;
then one rests content, untouched by trouble.(AG)
24 A sluggard buries his hand in the dish;
he will not even bring it back to his mouth!(AH)
25 Flog a mocker, and the simple will learn prudence;
rebuke the discerning,(AI) and they will gain knowledge.(AJ)
26 Whoever robs their father and drives out their mother(AK)
is a child who brings shame and disgrace.
27 Stop listening to instruction, my son,(AL)
and you will stray from the words of knowledge.
28 A corrupt witness mocks at justice,
and the mouth of the wicked gulps down evil.(AM)
29 Penalties are prepared for mockers,
and beatings for the backs of fools.(AN)
