1 בֵּן חָכָם מוּסַר אָב וְלֵץ לֹא־שָׁמַע גְּעָרָה	1 A wise son is the doctrine of his father. But he who ridicules does not listen when he is reproved.
2 מִפְּרִי פִי־אִישׁ יֹאכַל טֹוב וְנֶפֶשׁ בֹּגְדִים חָמָס	2 From the fruit of his own month, a man shall be satisfied with good things. But the soul of betrayers is iniquity.
3 נֹצֵר פִּיו שֹׁמֵר נַפְשֹׁו פֹּשֵׂק פָתָיו מְחִתָּה־לֹו	3 Whoever guards his mouth guards his soul. But whoever gives no consideration to his speech shall experience misfortunes.
4 מִתְאַוָּה וָאַיִן נַפְשֹׁו עָצֵל וְנֶפֶשׁ חָרֻצִים תְּדֻשָּׁן	4 The lazy one is willing and then not willing. But the soul of he who labors shall be made fat.
5 דְּבַרשֶׁ־קֶר יִשְׂנָא צַדִּיק וְרָשָׁע יַבְאִישׁ וְיַחְפִּיר	5 The just shall detest a lying word. But the impious confound and will be confounded.
6 צְדָקָה תִּצֹּר תָּם־דָּרֶךְ וְרִשְׁעָה תְּסַלֵּף חַטָּאת	6 Justice guards the way of the innocent. But impiety undermines the sinner.
7 יֵשׁ מִתְעַשֵּׁר וְאֵין כֹּל מִתְרֹושֵׁשׁ וְהֹון רָב	7 One is like the rich, though he has nothing. And another is like the poor, though he has many riches.
8 כֹּפֶר נֶפֶשׁ־אִישׁ עָשְׁרֹו וְרָשׁ לֹא־שָׁמַע גְּעָרָה	8 The redemption of a man’s life is his riches. But he who is poor cannot tolerate correction.
9 אֹור־צַדִּיקִים יִשְׂמָח וְנֵר רְשָׁעִים יִדְעָךְ	9 The light of the just enriches. But the lamp of the impious will be extinguished.
10 רַק־בְּזָדֹון יִתֵּן מַצָּה וְאֶת־נֹועָצִים חָכְמָה	10 Among the arrogant, there are always conflicts. But those who do everything with counsel are ruled by wisdom.
11 הֹון מֵהֶבֶל יִמְעָט וְקֹבֵץ עַל־יָד יַרְבֶּה	11 Substance obtained in haste will be diminished. But what is collected by hand, little by little, shall be multiplied.
12 תֹּוחֶלֶת מְמֻשָּׁכָה מַחֲלָה־לֵב וְעֵץ חַיִּים תַּאֲוָה בָאָה	12 Hope, when it is delayed, afflicts the soul. The arrival of the desired is a tree of life.
13 בָּז לְדָבָר יֵחָבֶל לֹו וִירֵא מִצְוָה הוּא יְשֻׁלָּם	13 Whoever denounces something obligates himself for the future. But whoever fears a lesson shall turn away in peace. Deceitful souls wander into sins. The just are merciful and compassionate.
14 תֹּורַת חָכָם מְקֹור חַיִּים לָסוּר מִמֹּקְשֵׁי מָוֶת	14 The law of the wise is a fountain of life, so that he may turn aside from the ruin of death.
15 שֵׂכֶל־טֹוב יִתֶּן־חֵן וְדֶרֶךְ בֹּגְדִים אֵיתָן	15 Good doctrine bestows grace. In the way of the contemptuous, there is a chasm.
16 כָּל־עָרוּם יַעֲשֶׂה בְדָעַת וּכְסִיל יִפְרֹשׂ אִוֶּלֶת	16 The discerning do everything with counsel. But whoever is senseless discloses his stupidity.
17 מַלְאָךְ רָשָׁע יִפֹּל בְּרָע וְצִיר אֱמוּנִים מַרְפֵּא	17 The messenger of the impious will fall into evil. But a faithful ambassador shall prosper.
18 רֵישׁ וְקָלֹון פֹּורֵעַ מוּסָר וְשֹׁומֵר תֹּוכַחַת יְכֻבָּד	18 Destitution and disgrace are for those who abandon discipline. But whoever agrees with a reproof shall be glorified.
19 תַּאֲוָה נִהְיָה תֶעֱרַב לְנָפֶשׁ וְתֹועֲבַת כְּסִילִים סוּר מֵרָע	19 The desired, when perfected, shall delight the soul. The foolish detest those who flee from evils.
20 [הָלֹוךְ כ] (הֹולֵךְ ק) אֶת־חֲכָמִים [וַחֲכָם כ] (יֶחְכָּם ק) וְרֹעֶה כְסִילִים יֵרֹועַ	20 Whoever keeps step with the wise shall be wise. A friend of the foolish will become like them.
21 חַטָּאִים תְּרַדֵּף רָעָה וְאֶת־צַדִּיקִים יְשַׁלֶּם־טֹוב	21 Evil pursues sinners. And good things shall be distributed to the just.
22 טֹוב יַנְחִיל בְּנֵי־בָנִים וְצָפוּן לַצַּדִּיק חֵיל חֹוטֵא	22 The good leave behind heirs: children and grandchildren. And the substance of the sinner is preserved for the just.
23 רָב־אֹכֶל נִיר רָאשִׁים וְיֵשׁ נִסְפֶּה בְּלֹא מִשְׁפָּט	23 Much nourishment is in the fallow land of the fathers. But for others, it is gathered without judgment.
24 חֹושֵׂךְ בְטֹו שֹׂונֵא בְנֹו וְאֹהֲבֹו שִׁחֲרֹו מוּסָר	24 He who spares the rod hates his son. But he who loves him urgently instructs him.
25 צַדִּיק אֹכֵל לְשֹׂבַע נַפְשֹׁו וּבֶטֶן רְשָׁעִים תֶּחְסָר׃ פ	25 The just eats and fills his soul. But the belly of the impious is never satisfied.
26 וְגַם־אֲנִי חָשַׂפְתִּי שׁוּלַיִךְ עַל־פָּנָיִךְ וְנִרְאָה קְלֹונֵךְ
27 נִאֻפַיִךְ וּמִצְהֲלֹותַיִךְ זִמַּת זְנוּתֵךְ עַל־גְּבָעֹות בַּשָּׂדֶה רָאִיתִי שִׁקּוּצָיִךְ אֹוי לָךְ יְרוּשָׁלִַם לֹא תִטְהֲרִי אַחֲרֵי מָתַי עֹד׃ פ
