Proverbs 3

New International Version NIV

1 My son, do not forget my teaching, but keep my commands in your heart,

2 for they will prolong your life many years and bring you peace and prosperity.

3 Let love and faithfulness never leave you; bind them around your neck, write them on the tablet of your heart.

4 Then you will win favor and a good name in the sight of God and man.

5 Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding;

6 in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight.

7 Do not be wise in your own eyes; fear the LORD and shun evil.

8 This will bring health to your body and nourishment to your bones.

9 Honor the LORD with your wealth, with the firstfruits of all your crops;

10 then your barns will be filled to overflowing, and your vats will brim over with new wine.

11 My son, do not despise the LORD’s discipline, and do not resent his rebuke,

12 because the LORD disciplines those he loves, as a father the son he delights in.

13 Blessed are those who find wisdom, those who gain understanding,

14 for she is more profitable than silver and yields better returns than gold.

15 She is more precious than rubies; nothing you desire can compare with her.

16 Long life is in her right hand; in her left hand are riches and honor.

17 Her ways are pleasant ways, and all her paths are peace.

18 She is a tree of life to those who take hold of her; those who hold her fast will be blessed.

19 By wisdom the LORD laid the earth’s foundations, by understanding he set the heavens in place;

20 by his knowledge the watery depths were divided, and the clouds let drop the dew.

21 My son, do not let wisdom and understanding out of your sight, preserve sound judgment and discretion;

22 they will be life for you, an ornament to grace your neck.

23 Then you will go on your way in safety, and your foot will not stumble.

24 When you lie down, you will not be afraid; when you lie down, your sleep will be sweet.

25 Have no fear of sudden disaster or of the ruin that overtakes the wicked,

26 for the LORD will be at your side and will keep your foot from being snared.

27 Do not withhold good from those to whom it is due, when it is in your power to act.

28 Do not say to your neighbor, “Come back tomorrow and I’ll give it to you”— when you already have it with you.

29 Do not plot harm against your neighbor, who lives trustfully near you.

30 Do not accuse anyone for no reason— when they have done you no harm.

31 Do not envy the violent or choose any of their ways.

32 For the LORD detests the perverse but takes the upright into his confidence.

33 The LORD’s curse is on the house of the wicked, but he blesses the home of the righteous.

34 He mocks proud mockers but shows favor to the humble and oppressed.

35 The wise inherit honor, but fools get only shame.

The Latin Vulgate VUL

1 fili mi ne obliviscaris legis meae et praecepta mea custodiat cor tuum

2 longitudinem enim dierum et annos vitae et pacem adponent tibi

3 misericordia et veritas non te deserant circumda eas gutturi tuo et describe in tabulis cordis tui

4 et invenies gratiam et disciplinam bonam coram Deo et hominibus

5 habe fiduciam in Domino ex toto corde tuo et ne innitaris prudentiae tuae

6 in omnibus viis tuis cogita illum et ipse diriget gressus tuos

7 ne sis sapiens apud temet ipsum time Dominum et recede a malo

8 sanitas quippe erit umbilico tuo et inrigatio ossuum tuorum

9 honora Dominum de tua substantia et de primitiis omnium frugum tuarum

10 et implebuntur horrea tua saturitate et vino torcularia redundabunt

11 disciplinam Domini fili mi ne abicias nec deficias cum ab eo corriperis

12 quem enim diligit Dominus corripit et quasi pater in filio conplacet sibi

13 beatus homo qui invenit sapientiam et qui affluit prudentia

14 melior est adquisitio eius negotiatione argenti et auro primo fructus eius

15 pretiosior est cunctis opibus et omnia quae desiderantur huic non valent conparari

16 longitudo dierum in dextera eius in sinistra illius divitiae et gloria

17 viae eius viae pulchrae et omnes semitae illius pacificae

18 lignum vitae est his qui adprehenderint eam et qui tenuerit eam beatus

19 Dominus sapientia fundavit terram stabilivit caelos prudentia

20 sapientia illius eruperunt abyssi et nubes rore concrescunt

21 fili mi ne effluant haec ab oculis tuis custodi legem atque consilium

22 et erit vita animae tuae et gratia faucibus tuis

23 tunc ambulabis fiducialiter in via tua et pes tuus non inpinget

24 si dormieris non timebis quiesces et suavis erit somnus tuus

25 ne paveas repentino terrore et inruentes tibi potentias impiorum

26 Dominus enim erit in latere tuo et custodiet pedem tuum ne capiaris

27 noli prohibere benefacere eum qui potest si vales et ipse benefac

28 ne dicas amico tuo vade et revertere et cras dabo tibi cum statim possis dare

29 ne moliaris amico tuo malum cum ille in te habeat fiduciam

30 ne contendas adversus hominem frustra cum ipse tibi nihil mali fecerit

31 ne aemuleris hominem iniustum nec imiteris vias eius

32 quia abominatio Domini est omnis inlusor et cum simplicibus sermocinatio eius

33 egestas a Domino in domo impii habitacula autem iustorum benedicentur

34 inlusores ipse deludet et mansuetis dabit gratiam

35 gloriam sapientes possidebunt stultorum exaltatio ignominia
