Proverbs 15

The Latin Vulgate VUL

1 responsio mollis frangit iram sermo durus suscitat furorem

2 lingua sapientium ornat scientiam os fatuorum ebullit stultitiam

3 in omni loco oculi Domini contemplantur malos et bonos

4 lingua placabilis lignum vitae quae inmoderata est conteret spiritum

5 stultus inridet disciplinam patris sui qui autem custodit increpationes astutior fiet

6 domus iusti plurima fortitudo et in fructibus impii conturbatur

7 labia sapientium disseminabunt scientiam cor stultorum dissimile erit

8 victimae impiorum abominabiles Domino vota iustorum placabilia

9 abominatio est Domino via impii qui sequitur iustitiam diligetur ab eo

10 doctrina mala deserenti viam qui increpationes odit morietur

11 infernus et perditio coram Domino quanto magis corda filiorum hominum

12 non amat pestilens eum qui se corripit nec ad sapientes graditur

13 cor gaudens exhilarat faciem in maerore animi deicitur spiritus

14 cor sapientis quaerit doctrinam et os stultorum pascetur inperitia

15 omnes dies pauperis mali secura mens quasi iuge convivium

16 melius est parum cum timore Domini quam thesauri magni et insatiabiles

17 melius est vocare ad holera cum caritate quam ad vitulum saginatum cum odio

18 vir iracundus provocat rixas qui patiens est mitigat suscitatas

19 iter pigrorum quasi sepes spinarum via iustorum absque offendiculo

20 filius sapiens laetificat patrem et stultus homo despicit matrem suam

21 stultitia gaudium stulto et vir prudens dirigit gressus

22 dissipantur cogitationes ubi non est consilium ubi vero plures sunt consiliarii confirmantur

23 laetatur homo in sententia oris sui et sermo oportunus est optimus

24 semita vitae super eruditum ut declinet de inferno novissimo

25 domum superborum demolietur Dominus et firmos facit terminos viduae

26 abominatio Domini cogitationes malae et purus sermo pulcherrimus

27 conturbat domum suam qui sectatur avaritiam qui autem odit munera vivet

28 mens iusti meditatur oboedientiam os impiorum redundat malis

29 longe est Dominus ab impiis et orationes iustorum exaudiet

30 lux oculorum laetificat animam fama bona inpinguat ossa

31 auris quae audit increpationes vitae in medio sapientium commorabitur

32 qui abicit disciplinam despicit animam suam qui adquiescit increpationibus possessor est cordis

33 timor Domini disciplina sapientiae et gloriam praecedit humilitas

New Century Version NCV

1 A gentle answer will calm a person's anger, but an unkind answer will cause more anger.

2 Wise people use knowledge when they speak, but fools pour out foolishness.

3 The Lord's eyes see everything; he watches both evil and good people.

4 As a tree gives fruit, healing words give life, but dishonest words crush the spirit.

5 Fools reject their parents' correction, but anyone who accepts correction is wise.

6 Much wealth is in the houses of good people, but evil people get nothing but trouble.

7 Wise people use their words to spread knowledge, but there is no knowledge in the thoughts of fools.

8 The Lord hates the sacrifice that the wicked offer, but he likes the prayers of honest people.

9 The Lord hates what evil people do, but he loves those who do what is right.

10 The person who quits doing what is right will be punished, and the one who hates to be corrected will die.

11 The Lord knows what is happening in the world of the dead, so he surely knows the thoughts of the living.

12 Those who make fun of wisdom don't like to be corrected; they will not ask the wise for advice.

13 Happiness makes a person smile, but sadness can break a person's spirit.

14 People with understanding want more knowledge, but fools just want more foolishness.

15 Every day is hard for those who suffer, but a happy heart is like a continual feast.

16 It is better to be poor and respect the Lord than to be wealthy and have much trouble.

17 It is better to eat vegetables with those who love you than to eat meat with those who hate you.

18 People with quick tempers cause trouble, but those who control their tempers stop a quarrel.

19 A lazy person's life is like a patch of thorns, but an honest person's life is like a smooth highway.

20 A wise son makes his father happy, but a foolish son disrespects his mother.

21 A person without wisdom enjoys being foolish, but someone with understanding does what is right.

22 Plans fail without good advice, but they succeed with the advice of many others.

23 People enjoy giving good advice. Saying the right word at the right time is so pleasing.

24 Wise people's lives get better and better. They avoid whatever would cause their death.

25 The Lord will tear down the proud person's house, but he will protect the widow's property.

26 The Lord hates evil thoughts but is pleased with kind words.

27 Greedy people bring trouble to their families, but the person who can't be paid to do wrong will live.

28 Good people think before they answer, but the wicked simply pour out evil.

29 The Lord does not listen to the wicked, but he hears the prayers of those who do right.

30 Good news makes you feel better. Your happiness will show in your eyes.

31 If you listen to correction to improve your life, you will live among the wise.

32 Those who refuse correction hate themselves, but those who accept correction gain understanding.

33 Respect for the Lord will teach you wisdom. If you want to be honored, you must be humble.
