Holy Name King James Version (KJV)

Proverbs 14

1 From this chapter to the five and twentieth are sundry observations of moral virtues, and their contrary vices.

 14:1 ¶ Every wise 2454 woman 802 buildeth 1129 z8804 her house: 1004 but the foolish 200 plucketh it down 2040 z8799 with her hands. 3027

 14:2 He that walketh 1980 z8802 in his uprightness 3476 feareth y3373 x3372 Yahweh: 3068 but [he that is] perverse 3868 z8737 in his ways 1870 despiseth 959 z8802 him.

 14:3 In the mouth 6310 of the foolish 191 [is] a rod 2415 of pride: 1346 but the lips 8193 of the wise 2450 shall preserve 8104 z8799 them.

 14:4 Where no x369 oxen 504 [are], the crib 18 [is] clean: 1249 but much 7230 increase 8393 [is] by the strength 3581 of the ox. 7794

 14:5 A faithful 529 witness 5707 will not x3808 lie: y3577 x3576 but a false 8267 witness 5707 will utter 6315 z8686 lies. y3576 z8762 x3577

 14:6 A scorner 3887 z8801 seeketh 1245 z8765 wisdom, 2451 and [findeth it] not: x369 but knowledge 1847 [is] easy 7043 z8738 unto him that understandeth. 995 z8737

 14:7 Go y3212 z8798 x1980 from the presence 5048 x4480 of a foolish 3684 man, 376 when thou perceivest 3045 z8804 not x1077 [in him] the lips 8193 of knowledge. 1847

 14:8 The wisdom 2451 of the prudent 6175 [is] to understand 995 z8687 his way: 1870 but the folly 200 of fools 3684 [is] deceit. 4820

 14:9 Fools 191 make a mock 3887 z8686 at sin: 817 but among x996 the righteous 3477 [there is] favour. 7522

 14:10 The heart 3820 knoweth 3045 z8802 his own 5315 bitterness; 4787 and a stranger 2114 z8801 doth not x3808 intermeddle 6148 z8691 with his joy. 8057

 14:11 The house 1004 of the wicked 7563 shall be overthrown: 8045 z8735 but the tabernacle 168 of the upright 3477 shall flourish. 6524 z8686

 14:12 There is 3426 a way 1870 which seemeth right 3477 unto 6440 a man, 376 but the end 319 thereof [are] the ways 1870 of death. 4194

 14:13 Even x1571 in laughter 7814 the heart 3820 is sorrowful; 3510 z8799 and the end 319 of that mirth 8057 [is] heaviness. 8424

 14:14 The backslider 5472 z8803 in heart 3820 shall be filled 7646 z8799 with his own ways: 1870 x4480 and a good 2896 man 376 [shall be satisfied] from x4480 x5921 himself.

 14:15 The simple 6612 believeth 539 z8686 every x3605 word: 1697 but the prudent 6175 [man] looketh well 995 z8799 to his going. 838

 14:16 A wise 2450 [man] feareth, 3373 and departeth 5493 z8802 from evil: 7451 x4480 but the fool 3684 rageth, 5674 z8693 and is confident. 982 z8802

 14:17 [He that is] soon 7116 angry 639 dealeth 6213 z8799 foolishly: 200 and a man 376 of wicked devices 4209 is hated. 8130 z8735

 14:18 The simple 6612 inherit 5157 z8804 folly: 200 but the prudent 6175 are crowned 3803 z8686 with knowledge. 1847

 14:19 The evil 7451 bow 7817 z8804 before 6440 the good; 2896 and the wicked 7563 at x5921 the gates 8179 of the righteous. 6662

 14:20 The poor 7326 z8802 is hated 8130 z8735 even x1571 of his own neighbour: 7453 but the rich 6223 [hath] many 7227 friends. 157 z8802

 14:21 He that despiseth 936 z8802 his neighbour 7453 sinneth: 2398 z8802 but he that hath mercy y2603 z8781 on x2603 the poor, 6035 z8675 y6041 happy 835 [is] he.

 14:22 Do they not x3808 err 8582 z8799 that devise 2790 z8802 evil? 7451 but mercy 2617 and truth 571 [shall be] to them that devise 2790 z8802 good. 2896

 14:23 In all x3605 labour 6089 there is x1961 profit: 4195 but the talk 1697 of the lips 8193 [tendeth] only x389 to penury. 4270

 14:24 The crown 5850 of the wise 2450 [is] their riches: 6239 [but] the foolishness 200 of fools 3684 [is] folly. 200

 14:25 A true 571 witness 5707 delivereth 5337 z8688 souls: 5315 but a deceitful 4820 [witness] speaketh 6315 z8686 lies. 3577

 14:26 In the fear 3374 of Yahweh 3068 [is] strong 5797 confidence: 4009 and his children 1121 shall have x1961 a place of refuge. 4268

 14:27 The fear 3374 of Yahweh 3068 [is] a fountain 4726 of life, 2416 to depart 5493 z8800 from the snares 4170 x4480 of death. 4194

 14:28 In the multitude 7230 of people 5971 [is] the king's 4428 honour: 1927 but in the want 657 of people 3816 [is] the destruction 4288 of the prince. 7333

 14:29 [He that is] slow 750 to wrath 639 [is] of great 7227 understanding: 8394 but [he that is] hasty 7116 of spirit 7307 exalteth 7311 z8688 folly. 200

 14:30 A sound 4832 heart 3820 [is] the life 2416 of the flesh: 1320 but envy 7068 the rottenness 7538 of the bones. 6106

 14:31 He that oppresseth 6231 z8802 the poor 1800 reproacheth 2778 z8765 his Maker: 6213 z8802 but he that honoureth 3513 z8764 him hath mercy 2603 z8802 on the poor. 34

 14:32 The wicked 7563 is driven away 1760 z8735 in his wickedness: 7451 but the righteous 6662 hath hope 2620 z8802 in his death. 4194

 14:33 Wisdom 2451 resteth 5117 z8799 in the heart 3820 of him that hath understanding: 995 z8737 but [that which is] in the midst 7130 of fools 3684 is made known. 3045 z8735

 14:34 Righteousness 6666 exalteth 7311 z8787 a nation: 1471 but sin 2403 [is] a reproach 2617 to any people. 3816

 14:35 The king's 4428 favour 7522 [is] toward a wise 7919 z8688 servant: 5650 but his wrath 5678 is x1961 [against] him that causeth shame. 954 z8688
