New American Bible	La Biblia
¹ The wicked man flees although no one pursues him; but the just man, like a lion, feels sure of himself.	¹ El malvado huye sin que lo persigan, \| el honrado está seguro como un león.
² If a land is rebellious, its princes will be many; but with a prudent man it knows security.	² Un país en desorden tiene muchos jefes, \| un hombre prudente y sabio mantiene el orden.
³ A rich man who oppresses the poor is like a devastating rain that leaves no food.	³ Gobernante que explota a los débiles \| es tormenta que se lleva la cosecha.
⁴ Those who abandon the law praise the wicked man, but those who keep the law war against him.	⁴ Los que abandonan la ley aplauden al malvado, \| los que la cumplen se indignan contra él.
⁵ Evil men understand nothing of justice, but those who seek the LORD understand all.	⁵ Los malvados no entienden de justicia, \| quien consulta al Señor lo entiende todo.
⁶ Better a poor man who walks in his integrity than he who is crooked in his ways and rich.	⁶ Más vale pobre de conducta honrada \| que rico con malas intenciones.
⁷ He who keeps the law is a wise son, but the gluttons' companion disgraces his father.	⁷ El hijo inteligente observa la ley, \| pero el amigo de libertinos deshonra a su padre.
⁸ He who increases his wealth by interest and overcharge gathers it for him who is kind to the poor.	⁸ Quien aumenta su riqueza prestando a usura \| la acumula para quien se apiada del pobre.
⁹ When one turns away his ear from hearing the law, even his prayer is an abomination.	⁹ Si uno cierra su oído a la ley, \| resulta detestable su oración.
¹⁰ He who seduces the upright into an evil way will himself fall into his own pit. (And blameless men will gain prosperity.)	¹⁰ Quien desvía a los rectos por el mal camino \| acabará cayendo en su propia trampa.
¹¹ The rich man is wise in his own eyes, but a poor man who is intelligent sees through him.	¹¹ El rico se las da de sabio, \| pero el pobre que es sagaz lo pone al descubierto.
¹² When the just are triumphant, there is great jubilation; but when the wicked gain preeminence, people hide.	¹² Si triunfa el honrado se celebran fiestas; \| si se impone el malvado, todos se esconden.
¹³ He who conceals his sins prospers not, but he who confesses and forsakes them obtains mercy.	¹³ El que oculta sus faltas no prosperará; \| el que las confiesa y cambia será compadecido.
¹⁴ Happy the man who is always on his guard; but he who hardens his heart will fall into evil.	¹⁴ Dichoso el que se mantiene alerta, \| el terco caerá en la desgracia.
¹⁵ Like a roaring lion or a ravenous bear is a wicked ruler over a poor people.	¹⁵ León rugiente y oso hambriento, \| el gobernante que explota a los pobres.
¹⁶ The less prudent the prince, the more his deeds oppress. He who hates ill-gotten gain prolongs his days.	¹⁶ Gobernante imprudente multiplica la opresión, \| quien odia la avaricia vivirá muchos años.
¹⁷ Though a man burdened with human blood were to flee to the grave, none should support him.	¹⁷ Hombre perseguido por delito de sangre \| corre a la tumba, ¡que nadie lo detenga!
¹⁸ He who walks uprightly is safe, but he whose ways are crooked falls into the pit.	¹⁸ Quien camina rectamente se salvará, \| el camino sinuoso conduce al fracaso.
¹⁹ He who cultivates his land will have plenty of food, but from idle pursuits a man has his fill of poverty.	¹⁹ Quien cultiva su tierra se hartará de pan, \| quien persigue quimeras se hartará de miseria.
²⁰ The trustworthy man will be richly blessed; he who is in haste to grow rich will not go unpunished.	²⁰ El hombre leal abundará en bendiciones, \| quien corre por enriquecerse no quedará impune.
²¹ To show partiality is never good: for even a morsel of bread a man may do wrong.	²¹ No es bueno ser parcial con la gente, \| por un trozo de pan delinque el hombre.
²² The avaricious man is perturbed about his wealth, and he knows not when want will come upon him.	²² El avaro corre por enriquecerse, \| sin saber que le espera la miseria.
²³ He who rebukes a man gets more thanks in the end than one with a flattering tongue.	²³ Es más estimado el que corrige \| que el hombre de lengua aduladora.
²⁴ He who defrauds father or mother and calls it no sin, is a partner of the brigand.	²⁴ El que roba a sus padres y dice: «No es pecado», \| es un cómplice de bandoleros.
²⁵ The greedy man stirs up disputes, but he who trusts in the LORD will prosper.	²⁵ El codicioso provoca pleitos, \| quien confía en el Señor prosperará.
²⁶ He who trusts in himself is a fool, but he who walks in wisdom is safe.	²⁶ Quien se fía de sí mismo es un necio, \| quien obra con sensatez se salvará.
²⁷ He who gives to the poor suffers no want, but he who ignores them gets many a curse.	²⁷ Quien da al pobre no pasará necesidad, \| quien no lo ayuda será maldecido.
²⁸ When the wicked gain pre-eminence, other men hide; but at their fall the just flourish.	²⁸ Se imponen los malvados y todos se esconden; \| cuando desaparecen, aumentan los honrados.
