Proverbs 28

Jubilee Bible 2000 JUB

1 The wicked flee when no man pursues, but the righteous are bold as <em>a</em> young lion.

2 By the rebellion of the land, many <em>are</em> its princes, but by the man of understanding <em>and</em> wisdom the <em>land</em> shall remain stable.

3 A poor man that oppresses the poor <em>is like</em> a sweeping rain which leaves no food.

4 Those that forsake the law praise the wicked, but such as keep the law contend with them.

5 Evil men do not understand judgment, but those that seek the LORD understand all <em>things</em>.

6 Better <em>is</em> the poor that walks in his perfection than <em>he that is</em> perverse <em>in his</em> ways, though he <em>is</em> rich.

7 Whosoever keeps the law <em>is</em> a wise son, but he that is a companion of gluttons shames his father.

8 He that by usury and unjust gain increases his substance, he shall gather it for him that will pity the poor.

9 He that turns away his ear from hearing the law, even his prayer <em>shall be</em> abomination.

10 Whosoever causes the upright to go astray in an evil way, he shall fall himself into his own pit, but the perfect shall inherit <em>every</em> good <em>thing</em>.

11 The rich man <em>is</em> wise in his own conceit, but the poor that has understanding is wiser than he.

12 When the righteous rejoice, <em>there is</em> great glory, but when the wicked rise, the sane man hides himself.

13 He that covers his sins shall not prosper, but whosoever confesses and forsakes <em>them</em> shall attain mercy.

14 Blessed <em>is</em> the man that fears <em>God</em> always, but he that hardens his heart shall fall into evil.

15 As a roaring lion and a hungry bear, <em>so is</em> a wicked ruler over the poor people.

16 The prince void of intelligence <em>is</em> also a great oppressor, <em>but</em> he that hates covetousness shall prolong <em>his</em> days.

17 A man that does violence to the blood of <em>any</em> person shall flee all the way to the grave, and no one shall sustain him.

18 Whosoever walks in integrity shall be saved, but <em>he that is</em> perverse <em>in his</em> ways shall fall into one of them.

19 He that tills his land shall be filled with bread, but he that follows after vain <em>persons</em> shall be filled with poverty.

20 The man of truth shall abound with blessings, but he that makes haste to be rich shall not be absolved.

21 To have respect of persons <em>in judgment</em> is not good; even for a piece of bread, man will transgress.

22 He that hastens to be rich <em>has</em> an evil eye and does not consider that poverty shall come upon him.

23 He that rebukes a man, afterwards shall find more favour than he that flatters with the tongue.

24 Whosoever robs his father or his mother and says, <em>It is</em> no transgression; the same <em>is</em> the companion of the destroyer.

25 He that is of a proud heart stirs up strife, but he that puts his trust in the LORD shall be made fat.

26 He that trusts in his own heart is a fool, but whosoever walks in wisdom, he shall be saved.

27 He that gives unto the poor shall never lack, but he that hides his eyes <em>from the poor</em> shall have many a curse.

28 When the wicked rise, sane men hide themselves; but when they perish, the righteous multiply.

1 8 The rasha flee when none pursueth; but the tzaddikim are bold as a lion.

2 For the peysha eretz (land in rebellion) many are the sarim (rulers) thereof, but by an adam meiven yodei’a (a man of wisdom and knowledge) shall be lasting order.

3 A gever rahsh (poor man) that oppresseth the dalim (poor ones) is like a sweeping matar (rain) which leaveth no lechem (food, crop).

4 They that forsake the torah praise the rasha, but such as be shomer over the torah contend against them.

5 Anshei rah understand not mishpat, but they that seek Hashem understand all things.

6 Better is the rahsh (poor) that walketh in his integrity, than he that is perverse in his drakhim (ways), though he be rich.

7 He who keepeth torah is a ben meiven, but he that is a companion of zolelim (gluttons) shameth aviv.

8 He that by neshekh (interest) and increase increaseth his substance, he shall gather it for him that will pity the dalim (poor ones).

9 He that turneth away his ozen from mishmo’a torah (heeding torah), even his tefillah (prayer) shall be to’evah (abomination).

10 He who causeth the yesharim (upright ones) to go astray in a derech rah, he shall fall himself into his own trap, but the blameless ones shall inherit tov.

11 The ish oisher is chacham in his own eyes, but the dal meiven (poor man with understanding) searcheth him out.

12 When tzaddikim do triumph, there is rabbah tiferet (great glory), but when the resha’im rise, the people go into hiding.

13 He that covereth his peysha’im (sins) shall not prosper, but he who confesseth and forsaketh them shall find mercy.

14 Ashrei adam that is reverent always, but he that hardeneth his lev shall fall into ra’ah.

15 As a roaring ari, and a charging dov (bear), so is a wicked moshel (ruler) over the am dal (poor people).

16 The nagid (ruler) lacking tevunot (understanding) is also a great oppressor, but he that hateth betza (ill-gotten gain) shall prolong his yamim (days).

17 If an adam is burdened with dahm (blood, murder) of any nefesh, let him be a fugitive ad bor (till the pit, death); let no ish help him.

18 He who walketh tamim (blamelessly) shall be saved, but he that is perverse in his drakhim shall fall suddenly.

19 He that tilleth his adamah shall have plenty of lechem, but he that chaseth after empty things shall have poverty enough.

20 An ish emunot (faithful man, loyal man) shall abound with birkhot, but he that maketh haste to be rich shall not go unpunished.

21 To show partiality is not tov; for a piece of lechem that gever will transgress.

22 He that hasteth to be rich hath a rah ayin, and considereth not that want shall come upon him.

23 He that rebuketh an adam afterwards shall find more chen (favor) than he that flattereth with the lashon.

24 He who robbeth aviv or immo, and saith, It is no peysha (transgression), the same is the chaver (fellow, companion) of an ish mashchit (man of destruction).

25 The covetous stirreth up strife, but he that putteth his trust in Hashem shall be prospered.

26 He that trusteth in his own lev is a kesil (fool), but he who walketh in chochmah, he shall be delivered.

27 He that giveth unto the rahsh (poor) shall not lack, but he that hideth his eynayim meeteth many curses.

28 When the resha’im rise, adam hide themselves, but when they perish, the tzaddikim increase.
