Proverbs 14

English Standard Version ESV

1 The wisest of women builds her house, but folly with her own hands tears it down.

2 Whoever walks in uprightness fears the Lord, but he who is devious in his ways despises him.

3 By the mouth of a fool comes a rod for his back, but the lips of the wise will preserve them.

4 Where there are no oxen, the manger is clean, but abundant crops come by the strength of the ox.

5 A faithful witness does not lie, but a false witness breathes out lies.

6 A scoffer seeks wisdom in vain, but knowledge is easy for a man of understanding.

7 Leave the presence of a fool, for there you do not meet words of knowledge.

8 The wisdom of the prudent is to discern his way, but the folly of fools is deceiving.

9 Fools mock at the guilt offering, but the upright enjoy acceptance.

10 The heart knows its own bitterness, and no stranger shares its joy.

11 The house of the wicked will be destroyed, but the tent of the upright will flourish.

12 There is a way that seems right to a man, but its end is the way to death.

13 Even in laughter the heart may ache, and the end of joy may be grief.

14 The backslider in heart will be filled with the fruit of his ways, and a good man will be filled with the fruit of his ways.

15 The simple believes everything, but the prudent gives thought to his steps.

16 One who is wise is cautious and turns away from evil, but a fool is reckless and careless.

17 A man of quick temper acts foolishly, and a man of evil devices is hated.

18 The simple inherit folly, but the prudent are crowned with knowledge.

19 The evil bow down before the good, the wicked at the gates of the righteous.

20 The poor is disliked even by his neighbor, but the rich has many friends.

21 Whoever despises his neighbor is a sinner, but blessed is he who is generous to the poor.

22 Do they not go astray who devise evil? Those who devise good meet steadfast love and faithfulness.

23 In all toil there is profit, but mere talk tends only to poverty.

24 The crown of the wise is their wealth, but the folly of fools brings folly.

25 A truthful witness saves lives, but one who breathes out lies is deceitful.

26 In the fear of the Lord one has strong confidence, and his children will have a refuge.

27 The fear of the Lord is a fountain of life, that one may turn away from the snares of death.

28 In a multitude of people is the glory of a king, but without people a prince is ruined.

29 Whoever is slow to anger has great understanding, but he who has a hasty temper exalts folly.

30 A tranquil heart gives life to the flesh, but envy makes the bones rot.

31 Whoever oppresses a poor man insults his Maker, but he who is generous to the needy honors him.

32 The wicked is overthrown through his evildoing, but the righteous finds refuge in his death.

33 Wisdom rests in the heart of a man of understanding, but it makes itself known even in the midst of fools.

34 Righteousness exalts a nation, but sin is a reproach to any people.

35 A servant who deals wisely has the king’s favor, but his wrath falls on one who acts shamefully.

The Latin Vulgate VUL

1 sapiens mulier aedificavit domum suam insipiens instructam quoque destruet manibus

2 ambulans recto itinere et timens Deum despicitur ab eo qui infami graditur via

3 in ore stulti virga superbiae labia sapientium custodiunt eos

4 ubi non sunt boves praesepe vacuum est ubi autem plurimae segetes ibi manifesta fortitudo bovis

5 testis fidelis non mentietur profert mendacium testis dolosus

6 quaerit derisor sapientiam et non inveniet doctrina prudentium facilis

7 vade contra virum stultum et nescito labia prudentiae

8 sapientia callidi est intellegere viam suam et inprudentia stultorum errans

9 stultis inludet peccatum inter iustos morabitur gratia

10 cor quod novit amaritudinem animae suae in gaudio eius non miscebitur extraneus

11 domus impiorum delebitur tabernacula iustorum germinabunt

12 est via quae videtur homini iusta novissima autem eius deducunt ad mortem

13 risus dolore miscebitur et extrema gaudii luctus occupat

14 viis suis replebitur stultus et super eum erit vir bonus

15 innocens credit omni verbo astutus considerat gressus suos

16 sapiens timet et declinat malum stultus transilit et confidit

17 inpatiens operabitur stultitiam et vir versutus odiosus est

18 possidebunt parvuli stultitiam et astuti expectabunt scientiam

19 iacebunt mali ante bonos et impii ante portas iustorum

20 etiam proximo suo pauper odiosus erit amici vero divitum multi

21 qui despicit proximum suum peccat qui autem miseretur pauperi beatus erit

22 errant qui operantur malum misericordia et veritas praeparant bona

23 in omni opere erit abundantia ubi autem verba sunt plurima frequenter egestas

24 corona sapientium divitiae eorum fatuitas stultorum inprudentia

25 liberat animas testis fidelis et profert mendacia versipellis

26 in timore Domini fiducia fortitudinis et filiis eius erit spes

27 timor Domini fons vitae ut declinet a ruina mortis

28 in multitudine populi dignitas regis et in paucitate plebis ignominia principis

29 qui patiens est multa gubernatur prudentia qui autem inpatiens exaltat stultitiam suam

30 vita carnium sanitas cordis putredo ossuum invidia

31 qui calumniatur egentem exprobrat factori eius honorat autem eum qui miseretur pauperis

32 in malitia sua expelletur impius sperat autem iustus in morte sua

33 in corde prudentis requiescit sapientia et indoctos quoque erudiet

34 iustitia elevat gentem miseros facit populos peccatum

35 acceptus est regi minister intellegens iracundiam eius inutilis sustinebit
