New American Bible	Peshitta ܦܫܝܼܛܬܵܐ
¹ Say nothing harmful, small or great; be not a foe instead of a friend; A bad name and disgrace will you acquire: "That for the evil man with double tongue!"	¹ ܘܚܠܦ ܪܚܡܐ ܠܐ ܬܗܘܐ ܣܢܐܐ ܕܠܐ ܫܡܐ ܒܝܫܐ ܘܩܠܠܐ ܬܐܪܬ ܘܚܣܕܐ ܘܚܘ̈ܒܐ ܥܠ ܡ̇ܢ ܕܡܗܠܟ ܒܬܪ̈ܬܝܢ
² Fall not into the grip of desire, lest, like fire, it consume your strength;	² ܠܐ ܬܫܬܠܡ ܒܐܝܕܐ ܕܢܦܫܟ ܕܠܐ ܬܒܥܐ ܐܝܟ ܬܘܪܐ ܚܝܠܟ
³ Your leaves it will eat, your fruits destroy, and you will be left a dry tree,	³ ܛܪ̈ܦܝܟ ܬܬܪ̈ ܘܐܒܟ ܬܐܟܘܠ ܘܬܫܒܩܟ ܐܝܟ ܐܝܠܢܐ ܝܒܝܫܐ
⁴ For contumacious desire destroys its owner and makes him the sport of his enemies.	⁴ ܡܛܠ ܕܢܦܫܐ ܩܫܝܬܐ ܬܚܒܠ ܡܪܗ̇ ܘܚܕܘܬܐ ܠܣܢܐ̈ܘܗܝ ܬܥܒܕܝܘܗܝ
⁵ A kind mouth multiplies friends, and gracious lips prompt friendly greetings.	⁵ ܦܘܡܐ ܒܣܝܡܐ ܢܣܓܘܢ ܪ̈ܚܡܘܗܝ ܘܣܦܘ̈ܬܗܘܢ ܕܟ̈ܐܢܐ ܫܐܠܬܐ ܕܫܠܡܐ
⁶ Let your acquaintances be many, but one in a thousand your confidant.	⁶ ܫܐ̈ܠܝ ܫܠܡܟ ܢܗܘܘܢ ܣܓܝܐ̈ܝܢ ܘܒܥܠ ܐܪܙܟ ܚܕ ܡܢ ܐܠܦ
⁷ When you gain a friend, first test him, and be not too ready to trust him	⁷ ܐܢ ܩܢܐ ܐܢܬ ܪܚܡܐ ܒܢܣܝܢܐ ܩܢܝܘܗܝ. ܘܠܐ ܬܣܬܪܗܒ ܠܡܬܬܟܠܘ ܥܠܘܗܝ
⁸ For one sort of friend is a friend when it suits him, but he will not be with you in time of distress.	⁸ ܐܝܬ ܪܚܡܐ ܒܐܦ̈ܝ ܫܥܬܐ ܘܠܐ ܩܐܡ ܒܥܕܢܐ ܕܐܘܠܨܢܐ
⁹ Another is a friend who becomes an enemy, and tells of the quarrel to your shame.
¹⁰ Another is a friend, a boon companion, who will not be with you when sorrow comes.
¹¹ When things go well, he is your other self, and lords it over your servants;	¹¹ ܒܛܒ̈ܬܟ ܗܘܐ ܐܟܘܬܟ ܘܒܒܝ̈ܫܬܟ ܡܬܪܚܩ ܡܢܟ
¹² But if you are brought low, he turns against you and avoids meeting you.	¹² ܐܢ ܬܦܠ ܢܗܦܘܟ ܒܟ ܘܡܢ ܩܕܡܝܟ ܢܐܙܠ ܘܢܬܛܫܐ
¹³ Keep away from your enemies; be on your guard with your friends.	¹³ ܘܡܢ ܣܢܐܟ ܐܬܪܚܩ ܘܡܢ ܪܚܡܟ ܗܘܝܬ ܙܗܝܪ
¹⁴ A faithful friend is a sturdy shelter; he who finds one finds a treasure.	¹⁴ ܪܚܡܐ ܕܫܪܪܐ ܪܚܡܐ ܗܘ ܕܬܘܩܦܐ ܘܡܫܟܚܢ̈ܘܗܝ ܡܫܟܚܝܢ ܣܝܡܬܐ
¹⁵ A faithful friend is beyond price, no sum can balance his worth.	¹⁵ ܠܪܚܡ ܗܝܡܢܘܬܐ ܠܝܬ ܠܗ ܕܡ̈ܝܐ ܘܠܝܬ ܡܬܩܠܐ ܠܛܝܒܘܬܗ
¹⁶ A faithful friend is a life-saving remedy, such as he who fears God finds;	¹⁶ ܪܚܡ ܗܝܡܢܘܬܐ ܣܡܐ ܗܘ ܕܚ̈ܝܐ ܘܐܝܢܐ ܕܕܚܠ ܠܐܠܗܐ ܗܘܝܘ
¹⁷ For he who fears God behaves accordingly, and his friend will be like himself.	¹⁷ ܕܚ̈ܠܘܗܝ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܢܫܪܘܢ ܪܚܡܘܬܗܘܢ ܡܛܠ ܕܐܟܘܬܗ ܗܟܢܐ ܪ̈ܚܡܘܗܝ ܘܐܝܟ ܫܡܗ ܗܟܢܐ ܥܒ̈ܕܘܗܝ ܀
¹⁸ My son, from your youth embrace discipline; thus will you find wisdom with graying hair.	¹⁸ ܒܪܝ ܡܢ ܛܠܝܘܬܟ ܩܒܠ ܝܘܠܦܢܐ ܘܥܕܡܐ ܠܣܝܒܘܬܟ ܬܫܟܚ ܚܟܡܬܐ
¹⁹ As though plowing and sowing, draw close to her; then await her bountiful crops.	¹⁹ ܐܝܟ ܙܪܘܥܐ ܘܐܝܟ ܚܨܘܕܐ ܩܪܘܒ ܥܠܝܗ̇ ܘܣܘܓܐܐ ܕܥ̈ܠܠܬܗ̇ ܬܚܡܘܠ ܐܝܟ ܥܡܠܐ ܙܥܘܪܐ ܬܥܡܠ ܘܒܥܓܠ ܐܒܗ̇ ܬܐܟܘܠ
²⁰ For in cultivating her you will labor but little, and soon you will eat of her fruits.	²⁰ ܟܡܐ ܩܫܝܐ ܥܠ ܣܟ̈ܠܐ ܚܟܡܬܐ ܘܠܐ ܢܣܝܒܪܘܢܗ̇ ܚܣܝܪ̈ܝ ܠܒܐ
²¹ How irksome she is to the unruly! The fool cannot abide her.	²¹ ܐܝܟ ܟܐܦܐ ܗܝ ܝܩܝܪܬܐ ܥܠܘܗܝ ܕܠܐ ܢܚܘܪ ܘܢܫܕܝܗ̇
²² She will be like a burdensome stone to test him, and he will not delay in casting her aside.	²² ܫܡܗ̇ ܐܝܟ ܝܘܠܦܢܗ̇ ܘܠܣ̈ܟܠܐ ܠܐ ܡܬܒܚܪܐ
²³ For discipline is like her name, she is not accessible to many.	²³ ܫܡܥ ܒܪܝ ܘܩܒܠ ܝܘܠܦܢܝ ܘܠܐ ܬܒܛܠ ܡܪܕܘܬܝ
²⁴ Listen, my son, and heed my advice; refuse not my counsel.	²⁴ ܐܥܠ ܪܓܠܟ ܒܡܨܝܕܬܗ̇ ܘܒܛܥܢܗ̇ ܐܥܠ ܨܘܪܟ
²⁵ Put your feet into her fetters, and your neck under her yoke.	²⁵ ܩܪܒ ܟܬܦܟ ܘܫܩܘܠܝܗ̇ ܘܠܐ ܬܬܥܝܩ ܒܫܩܘܠܬܗ̇
²⁶ Stoop your shoulders and carry her and be not irked at her bonds.	²⁶ ܒܟܠܗ ܠܒܟ ܩܪܘܒ ܥܠܝܗ̇ ܘܒܟܠܗ ܚܝܠܟ ܛܪ ܐܘܪ̈ܚܬܗ̇
²⁷ With all your soul draw close to her; with all your strength keep her ways.	²⁷ ܒܕܩ ܘܒܨܝ ܘܒܥܝ ܘܬܫܟܚ ܘܐܬܥܫܢ ܒܗ̇ ܘܠܐ ܬܪܦܝܗ̇
²⁸ Search her out, discover her; seek her and you will find her. Then when you have her, do not let her go;	²⁸ ܘܒܚܪܬܗ̇ ܬܫܟܚ ܢܝܚܐ ܘܬܦܢܝܩ̈ܐ ܘܬܚܕܐ ܒܐܚܪܝܬܗ̇
²⁹ Thus will you afterward find rest in her, and she will become your joy.	²⁹ ܘܢܗܘܝܢ ܠܟ ܡܨܝ̈ܕܬܗ̇ ܡܘܬܒܐ ܥܫܝܢܐ
³⁰ Her fetters will be your throne of majesty; her bonds, your purple cord.
³¹ You will wear her as your robe of glory, bear her as your splendid crown.	³¹ ܘܠܒܘܫܐ ܕܐܝܩܪܐ ܬܠܒܫܟ ܘܟܠܝܠܐ ܕܬܫܒܘܚܬܐ ܬܩܛܪܟ ܀
³² My son, if you wish, you can be taught; if you apply yourself, you will be shrewd.	³² ܐܢ ܬܨܒܐ ܒܪܝ ܬܬܚܟܡ ܘܐܢ ܬܣܝܡ ܠܠܒܟ ܬܗܘܐ ܥܪܝܡ
³³ If you are willing to listen, you will learn; if you give heed, you will be wise.	³³ ܐܢ ܬܨܒܐ ܠܡܫܡܥ ܬܐܠܦ ܘܐܢ ܬܪܟܢ ܐܕܢܟ ܬܬܚܟܡ
³⁴ Frequent the company of the elders; whoever is wise, stay close to him.	³⁴ ܒܟܢܘܫܬܐ ܕܣܒ̈ܐ ܗܘܝܬ ܩܐܡ ܘܚܙܝ ܡܢܘ ܚܟܝܡ ܐܬܕܒܩ ܠܗ
³⁵ Be eager to hear every godly discourse; let no wise saying escape you.	³⁵ ܟܠ ܫܘܥ̈ܝܬܐ ܗܘܝܬ ܨܒܐ ܠܡܫܡܥ ܘܡ̈ܬܠܐ ܕܚܟܝܡ̈ܐ ܠܐ ܢܦܠܛܘܢܟ
³⁶ If you see a man of prudence, seek him out; let your feet wear away his doorstep!	³⁶ ܚܙܝ ܡܢܘ ܚܟܝܡ ܘܒܥܝܘܗܝ ܘܬܕܪܘܫ ܐܣܟܦ̈ܬܗ ܪܓܠܟ
³⁷ Reflect on the precepts of the LORD, let his commandments be your constant meditation; Then he will enlighten your mind, and the wisdom you desire he will grant.	³⁷ ܐܣܬܟܠ ܒܕܚܠܬܗ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܘܒܦܘܩ̈ܕܢܘܗܝ ܗܘܝܬ ܪܢܐ ܒܟܠܝܘܡ ܘܗܘ ܢܬܩܢ ܐܘܪ̈ܚܬܟ ܘܡܢ ܡܐ ܕܐܬܪܓܪܓܬ ܢܠܦܟ
