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

New King James Version NKJV

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

2 The wrath of a king is like the roaring of a lion; Whoever provokes him to anger sins against his own life.

3 It is honorable for a man to stop striving, Since any fool can start a quarrel.

4 The lazy man will not plow because of winter; He will beg during harvest and have nothing.

5 Counsel in the heart of man is like deep water, But a man of understanding will draw it out.

6 Most men will proclaim each his own goodness, But who can find a faithful man?

7 The righteous man walks in his integrity; His children are blessed after him.

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

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

10 Diverse weights and diverse measures, They are both alike, an abomination to the Lord.

11 Even a child is known by his deeds, Whether what he does is pure and right.

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

13 Do not love sleep, lest you come to poverty; Open your eyes, and you will be satisfied with bread.

14 "It is good for nothing," cries the buyer; But when he has gone his way, then he boasts.

15 There is gold and a multitude of rubies, But the lips of knowledge are a precious jewel.

16 Take the garment of one who is surety for a stranger, And hold it as a pledge when it is for a seductress.

17 Bread gained by deceit is sweet to a man, But afterward his mouth will be filled with gravel.

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

19 He who goes about as a talebearer reveals secrets; Therefore do not associate with one who flatters with his lips.

20 Whoever curses his father or his mother, His lamp will be put out in deep darkness.

21 An inheritance gained hastily at the beginning Will not be blessed at the end.

22 Do not say, "I will recompense evil"; Wait for the Lord, and He will save you.

23 Diverse weights are an abomination to the Lord, And dishonest scales are not good.

24 A man's steps are of the Lord; How then can a man understand his own way?

25 It is a snare for a man to devote rashly something as holy, And afterward to reconsider his vows.

26 A wise king sifts out the wicked, And brings the threshing wheel over them.

27 The spirit of a man is the lamp of the Lord, Searching all the inner depths of his heart.

28 Mercy and truth preserve the king, And by lovingkindness he upholds his throne.

29 The glory of young men is their strength, And the splendor of old men is their gray head.

30 Blows that hurt cleanse away evil, As do stripes the inner depths of the heart.
