Proverbs 10:1-10 (Young's Literal Translation)
View In My Bible
1
Proverbs of Solomon. A wise son causeth a father to rejoice, And a foolish son [is] an affliction to his mother.
2
Treasures of wickedness profit not, And righteousness delivereth from death.
3
Jehovah causeth not the soul of the righteous to hunger, And the desire of the wicked He thrusteth away.
4
Poor [is] he who is working -- a slothful hand, And the hand of the diligent maketh rich.
5
Whoso is gathering in summer [is] a wise son, Whoso is sleeping in harvest [is] a son causing shame.
6
Blessings [are] for the head of the righteous, And the mouth of the wicked cover doth violence.
7
The remembrance of the righteous [is] for a blessing, And the name of the wicked doth rot.
8
The wise in heart accepteth commands, And a talkative fool kicketh.
9
Whoso is walking in integrity walketh confidently, And whoso is perverting his ways is known.
10
Whoso is winking the eye giveth grief, And a talkative fool kicketh.
