Proverbs 16

The Latin Vulgate VUL

1 hominis est animum praeparare et Dei gubernare linguam

2 omnes viae hominum patent oculis eius spirituum ponderator est Dominus

3 revela Domino opera tua et dirigentur cogitationes tuae

4 universa propter semet ipsum operatus est Dominus impium quoque ad diem malum

5 abominatio Domini omnis arrogans etiam si manus ad manum fuerit non erit innocens

6 misericordia et veritate redimitur iniquitas et in timore Domini declinatur a malo

7 cum placuerint Domino viae hominis inimicos quoque eius convertet ad pacem

8 melius est parum cum iustitia quam multi fructus cum iniquitate

9 cor hominis disponet viam suam sed Domini est dirigere gressus eius

10 divinatio in labiis regis in iudicio non errabit os eius

11 pondus et statera iudicia Domini sunt et opera eius omnes lapides sacculi

12 abominabiles regi qui agunt impie quoniam iustitia firmatur solium

13 voluntas regum labia iusta qui recta loquitur diligetur

14 indignatio regis nuntii mortis et vir sapiens placabit eam

15 in hilaritate vultus regis vita et clementia eius quasi imber serotinus

16 posside sapientiam quia auro melior est et adquire prudentiam quia pretiosior est argento

17 semita iustorum declinat mala custos animae suae servat viam suam

18 contritionem praecedit superbia et ante ruinam exaltatur spiritus

19 melius est humiliari cum mitibus quam dividere spolia cum superbis

20 eruditus in verbo repperiet bona et qui in Domino sperat beatus est

21 qui sapiens corde est appellabitur prudens et qui dulcis eloquio maiora percipiet

22 fons vitae eruditio possidentis doctrina stultorum fatuitas

23 cor sapientis erudiet os eius et labiis illius addet gratiam

24 favus mellis verba conposita dulcedo animae et sanitas ossuum

25 est via quae videtur homini recta et novissimum eius ducit ad mortem

26 anima laborantis laborat sibi quia conpulit eum os suum

27 vir impius fodit malum et in labiis eius ignis ardescit

28 homo perversus suscitat lites et verbosus separat principes

29 vir iniquus lactat amicum suum et ducit eum per viam non bonam

30 qui adtonitis oculis cogitat prava mordens labia sua perficit malum

31 corona dignitatis senectus in viis iustitiae repperietur

32 melior est patiens viro forte et qui dominatur animo suo expugnatore urbium

33 sortes mittuntur in sinu sed a Domino temperantur

New International Version NIV

1 To humans belong the plans of the heart, but from the LORD comes the proper answer of the tongue.

2 All a person’s ways seem pure to them, but motives are weighed by the LORD.

3 Commit to the LORD whatever you do, and he will establish your plans.

4 The LORD works out everything to its proper end— even the wicked for a day of disaster.

5 The LORD detests all the proud of heart. Be sure of this: They will not go unpunished.

6 Through love and faithfulness sin is atoned for; through the fear of the LORD evil is avoided.

7 When the LORD takes pleasure in anyone’s way, he causes their enemies to make peace with them.

8 Better a little with righteousness than much gain with injustice.

9 In their hearts humans plan their course, but the LORD establishes their steps.

10 The lips of a king speak as an oracle, and his mouth does not betray justice.

11 Honest scales and balances belong to the LORD; all the weights in the bag are of his making.

12 Kings detest wrongdoing, for a throne is established through righteousness.

13 Kings take pleasure in honest lips; they value the one who speaks what is right.

14 A king’s wrath is a messenger of death, but the wise will appease it.

15 When a king’s face brightens, it means life; his favor is like a rain cloud in spring.

16 How much better to get wisdom than gold, to get insight rather than silver!

17 The highway of the upright avoids evil; those who guard their ways preserve their lives.

18 Pride goes before destruction, a haughty spirit before a fall.

19 Better to be lowly in spirit along with the oppressed than to share plunder with the proud.

20 Whoever gives heed to instruction prospers,and blessed is the one who trusts in the LORD.

21 The wise in heart are called discerning, and gracious words promote instruction.

22 Prudence is a fountain of life to the prudent, but folly brings punishment to fools.

23 The hearts of the wise make their mouths prudent, and their lips promote instruction.

24 Gracious words are a honeycomb, sweet to the soul and healing to the bones.

25 There is a way that appears to be right, but in the end it leads to death.

26 The appetite of laborers works for them; their hunger drives them on.

27 A scoundrel plots evil, and on their lips it is like a scorching fire.

28 A perverse person stirs up conflict, and a gossip separates close friends.

29 A violent person entices their neighbor and leads them down a path that is not good.

30 Whoever winks with their eye is plotting perversity; whoever purses their lips is bent on evil.

31 Gray hair is a crown of splendor; it is attained in the way of righteousness.

32 Better a patient person than a warrior, one with self-control than one who takes a city.

33 The lot is cast into the lap, but its every decision is from the LORD.
