3 The LORD <03068> will not suffer <07456> <00> the soul <05315> of the righteous <06662> to famish <07456> (8686): but he casteth away <01920> (8799) the substance <01942> of the wicked <07563>.
4 # He becometh poor <07326> (8802) that dealeth <06213> (8802) with a slack <07423> hand <03709> : but the hand <03027> of the diligent <02742> maketh rich <06238> (8686).

5 # He that gathereth <0103> (8802) in summer <07019> is a wise <07919> (8688) son <01121>: but he that sleepeth <07290> (8737) in harvest <07105> is a son <01121> that causeth shame <0954> (8688).
6 # Blessings <01293> are upon the head <07218> of the just <06662>: but violence <02555> covereth <03680> (8762) the mouth <06310> of the wicked <07563>.
7 # The memory <02143> of the just <06662> is blessed <01293>: but the name <08034> of the wicked <07563> shall rot <07537> (8799).

9 # He that walketh <03212> (8799) uprightly <08537> walketh <01980> (8802) surely <0983>: but he that perverteth <06140> (8764) his ways <01870> shall be known <03045> (8735).
10 # He that winketh <07169> (8802) with the eye <05869> causeth <05414> (8799) sorrow <06094>: but a prating <08193> fool <0191> shall fall <03832> (8735).
11 # The mouth <06310> of a righteous <06662> man is a well <04726> of life <02416>: but violence <02555> covereth <03680> (8762) the mouth <06310> of the wicked <07563>.

13 # In the lips <08193> of him that hath understanding <0995> (8737) wisdom <02451> is found <04672> (8735) : but a rod <07626> is for the back <01460> of him that is void <02638> of understanding <03820>.
14 # Wise <02450> men lay up <06845> (8799) knowledge <01847>: but the mouth <06310> of the foolish <0191> is near <07138> destruction <04288>.

16 # The labour <06468> of the righteous <06662> tendeth to life <02416>: the fruit <08393> of the wicked <07563> to sin <02403>.

19 # In the multitude <07230> of words <01697> there wanteth <02308> (8799) not sin <06588>: but he that refraineth <02820> (8802) his lips <08193> is wise <07919> (8688).
20 # The tongue <03956> of the just <06662> is as choice <0977> (8737) silver <03701>: the heart <03820> of the wicked <07563> is little worth <04592>.

25 As the whirlwind <05492> passeth <05674> (8800), so is the wicked <07563> no more: but the righteous <06662> is an everlasting <05769> foundation <03247>.
26 # As vinegar <02558> to the teeth <08127>, and as smoke <06227> to the eyes <05869>, so is the sluggard <06102> to them that send <07971> (8802) him.
27 # The fear <03374> of the LORD <03068> prolongeth <03254> (8686) days <03117>: but the years <08141> of the wicked <07563> shall be shortened <07114> (8799).

29 # The way <01870> of the LORD <03068> is strength <04581> to the upright <08537>: but destruction <04288> shall be to the workers <06466> (8802) of iniquity <0205>.
30 The righteous <06662> shall never <05769> be removed <04131> (8735): but the wicked <07563> shall not inhabit <07931> (8799) the earth <0776>.
