Proverbs 20

The Latin Vulgate VUL

1 luxuriosa res vinum et tumultuosa ebrietas quicumque his delectatur non erit sapiens

2 sicut rugitus leonis ita terror regis qui provocat eum peccat in animam suam

3 honor est homini qui separat se a contentionibus omnes autem stulti miscentur contumeliis

4 propter frigus piger arare noluit mendicabit ergo aestate et non dabitur ei

5 sicut aqua profunda sic consilium in corde viri sed homo sapiens exhauriet illud

6 multi homines misericordes vocantur virum autem fidelem quis inveniet

7 iustus qui ambulat in simplicitate sua beatos post se filios derelinquet

8 rex qui sedet in solio iudicii dissipat omne malum intuitu suo

9 quis potest dicere mundum est cor meum purus sum a peccato

10 pondus et pondus mensura et mensura utrumque abominabile est apud Deum

11 ex studiis suis intellegitur puer si munda et si recta sint opera eius

12 aurem audientem et oculum videntem Dominus fecit utrumque

13 noli diligere somnum ne te egestas opprimat aperi oculos tuos et saturare panibus

14 malum est malum est dicit omnis emptor et cum recesserit tunc gloriabitur

15 est aurum et multitudo gemmarum vas autem pretiosum labia scientiae

16 tolle vestimentum eius qui fideiussor extitit alieni et pro extraneis aufer pignus ab eo

17 suavis est homini panis mendacii et postea implebitur os eius calculo

18 cogitationes consiliis roborantur et gubernaculis tractanda sunt bella

19 ei qui revelat mysteria et ambulat fraudulenter et dilatat labia sua ne commiscearis

20 qui maledicit patri suo et matri extinguetur lucerna eius in mediis tenebris

21 hereditas ad quam festinatur in principio in novissimo benedictione carebit

22 ne dicas reddam malum expecta Dominum et liberabit te

23 abominatio est apud Deum pondus et pondus statera dolosa non est bona

24 a Domino diriguntur gressus viri quis autem hominum intellegere potest viam suam

25 ruina est hominis devorare sanctos et post vota tractare

26 dissipat impios rex sapiens et curvat super eos fornicem

27 lucerna Domini spiraculum hominis quae investigat omnia secreta ventris

28 misericordia et veritas custodiunt regem et roboratur clementia thronus eius

29 exultatio iuvenum fortitudo eorum et dignitas senum canities

30 livor vulneris absterget mala et plagae in secretioribus ventris

1 Wine is a mocker, strong drink a brawler, and whoever is led astray by it is not wise.

2 The terror of a king is like the growling of a lion; whoever provokes him to anger forfeits his life.

3 It is an honor for a man to keep aloof from strife, but every fool will be quarreling.

4 The sluggard does not plow in the autumn; he will seek at harvest and have nothing.

5 The purpose in a man’s heart is like deep water, but a man of understanding will draw it out.

6 Many a man proclaims his own steadfast love, but a faithful man who can find?

7 The righteous who walks in his integrity— blessed are his children after him!

8 A king who sits on the throne of judgment winnows all evil with his eyes.

9 Who can say, “I have made my heart pure; I am clean from my sin”?

10 Unequal weights and unequal measures are both alike an abomination to the Lord.

11 Even a child makes himself known by his acts, by whether his conduct is pure and upright.

12 The hearing ear and the seeing eye, the Lord has made them both.

13 Love not sleep, lest you come to poverty; open your eyes, and you will have plenty of bread.

14 “Bad, bad, ” says the buyer, but when he goes away, then he boasts.

15 There is gold and abundance of costly stones, but the lips of knowledge are a precious jewel.

16 Take a man’s garment when he has put up security for a stranger, and hold it in pledge when he puts up security for foreigners.

17 Bread gained by deceit is sweet to a man, but afterward his mouth will be full of gravel.

18 Plans are established by counsel; by wise guidance wage war.

19 Whoever goes about slandering reveals secrets; therefore do not associate with a simple babbler.

20 If one curses his father or his mother, his lamp will be put out in utter darkness.

21 An inheritance gained hastily in the beginning will not be blessed in the end.

22 Do not say, “I will repay evil”; wait for the Lord, and he will deliver you.

23 Unequal weights are an abomination to the Lord, and false scales are not good.

24 A man’s steps are from the Lord; how then can man understand his way?

25 It is a snare to say rashly, “It is holy, ”and to reflect only after making vows.

26 A wise king winnows the wicked and drives the wheel over them.

27 The spirit of man is the lamp of the Lord, searching all his innermost parts.

28 Steadfast love and faithfulness preserve the king, and by steadfast love his throne is upheld.

29 The glory of young men is their strength, but the splendor of old men is their gray hair.

30 Blows that wound cleanse away evil; strokes make clean the innermost parts.
