STUTTGARTENSIA-DELITZSCH	KING JAMES BIBLE
1 פַּלְגֵי־מַיִם לֶב־מֶלֶךְ בְּיַד־יְהוָה עַל־כָּל־אֲשֶׁר יַחְפֹּץ יַטֶּנּוּ	1 The king's heart is in the hand of the LORD, as the rivers of water: he turneth it whithersoever he will.
2 כָּל־דֶּרֶךְ־אִישׁ יָשָׁר בְּעֵינָיו וְתֹכֵן לִבֹּות יְהוָה	2 Every way of a man is right in his own eyes: but the LORD pondereth the hearts.
3 עֲשֹׂה צְדָקָה וּמִשְׁפָּט נִבְחָר לַיהוָה מִזָּבַח	3 To do justice and judgment is more acceptable to the LORD than sacrifice.
4 רוּם־עֵינַיִם וּרְחַב־לֵב נִר רְשָׁעִים חַטָּאת	4 An high look, and a proud heart, and the plowing of the wicked, is sin.
5 מַחְשְׁבֹות חָרוּץ אַךְ־לְמֹותָר וְכָל־אָץ אַךְ־לְמַחְסֹור	5 The thoughts of the diligent tend only to plenteousness; but of every one that is hasty only to want.
6 פֹּעַל אֹוצָרֹות בִּלְשֹׁון שָׁקֶר הֶבֶל נִדָּף מְבַקְשֵׁי־מָוֶת	6 The getting of treasures by a lying tongue is a vanity tossed to and fro of them that seek death.
7 שֹׁד־רְשָׁעִים יְגֹורֵם כִּי מֵאֲנוּ לַעֲשֹׂות מִשְׁפָּט	7 The robbery of the wicked shall destroy them; because they refuse to do judgment.
8 הֲפַכְפַּךְ דֶּרֶךְ אִישׁ וָזָר וְזַךְ יָשָׁר פָּעֳלֹו	8 The way of man is froward and strange: but as for the pure, his work is right.
9 טֹוב לָשֶׁבֶת עַל־פִּנַּת־גָּג מֵאֵשֶׁת מִדְיָנִים וּבֵית חָבֶר	9 It is better to dwell in a corner of the housetop, than with a brawling woman in a wide house.
10 נֶפֶשׁ רָשָׁע אִוְּתָה־רָע לֹא־יֻחַן בְּעֵינָיו רֵעֵהוּ	10 The soul of the wicked desireth evil: his neighbour findeth no favour in his eyes.
11 בַּעְנָשׁ־לֵץ יֶחְכַּם־פֶּתִי וּבְהַשְׂכִּיל לְחָכָם יִקַּח־דָּעַת	11 When the scorner is punished, the simple is made wise: and when the wise is instructed, he receiveth knowledge.
12 מַשְׂכִּיל צַדִּיק לְבֵית רָשָׁע מְסַלֵּף רְשָׁעִים לָרָע	12 The righteous man wisely considereth the house of the wicked: but God overthroweth the wicked for their wickedness.
13 אֹטֵם אָזְנֹו מִזַּעֲקַת־דָּל גַּם־הוּא יִקְרָא וְלֹא יֵעָנֶה	13 Whoso stoppeth his ears at the cry of the poor, he also shall cry himself, but shall not be heard.
14 מַתָּן בַּסֵּתֶר יִכְפֶּה־אָף וְשֹׁחַד בַּחֵק חֵמָה עַזָּה	14 A gift in secret pacifieth anger: and a reward in the bosom strong wrath.
15 שִׂמְחָה לַצַּדִּיק עֲשֹׂות מִשְׁפָּט וּמְחִתָּה לְפֹעֲלֵי אָוֶן	15 It is joy to the just to do judgment: but destruction shall be to the workers of iniquity.
16 אָדָם תֹּועֶה מִדֶּרֶךְ הַשְׂכֵּל בִּקְהַל רְפָאִים יָנוּחַ	16 The man that wandereth out of the way of understanding shall remain in the congregation of the dead.
17 אִישׁ מַחְסֹור אֹהֵב שִׂמְחָה אֹהֵב יַיִן־וָשֶׁמֶן לֹא יַעֲשִׁיר	17 He that loveth pleasure shall be a poor man: he that loveth wine and oil shall not be rich.
18 כֹּפֶר לַצַּדִּיק רָשָׁע וְתַחַת יְשָׁרִים בֹּוגֵד	18 The wicked shall be a ransom for the righteous, and the transgressor for the upright.
19 טֹוב שֶׁבֶת בְּאֶרֶץ־מִדְבָּר מֵאֵשֶׁת [מְדֹונִים כ] (מִדְיָנִים ק) וָכָעַס	19 It is better to dwell in the wilderness, than with a contentious and an angry woman.
20 אֹוצָר ׀ נֶחְמָד וָשֶׁמֶן בִּנְוֵה חָכָם וּכְסִיל אָדָם יְבַלְּעֶנּוּ	20 There is treasure to be desired and oil in the dwelling of the wise; but a foolish man spendeth it up.
21 רֹדֵף צְדָקָה וָחָסֶד יִמְצָא חַיִּים צְדָקָה וְכָבֹוד	21 He that followeth after righteousness and mercy findeth life, righteousness, and honour.
22 עִיר גִּבֹּרִים עָלָה חָכָם וַיֹּרֶד עֹז מִבְטֶחָה	22 A wise man scaleth the city of the mighty, and casteth down the strength of the confidence thereof.
23 שֹׁמֵר פִּיו וּלְשֹׁונֹו שֹׁמֵר מִצָּרֹות נַפְשֹׁו	23 Whoso keepeth his mouth and his tongue keepeth his soul from troubles.
24 זֵד יָהִיר לֵץ שְׁמֹו עֹושֶׂה בְּעֶבְרַת זָדֹון	24 Proud and haughty scorner is his name, who dealeth in proud wrath.
25 תַּאֲוַת עָצֵל תְּמִיתֶנּוּ כִּי־מֵאֲנוּ יָדָיו לַעֲשֹׂות	25 The desire of the slothful killeth him; for his hands refuse to labour.
26 כָּל־הַיֹּום הִתְאַוָּה תַאֲוָה וְצַדִּיק יִתֵּן וְלֹא יַחְשֹׂךְ	26 He coveteth greedily all the day long: but the righteous giveth and spareth not.
27 זֶבַח רְשָׁעִים תֹּועֵבָה אַף כִּי־בְזִמָּה יְבִיאֶנּוּ	27 The sacrifice of the wicked is abomination: how much more, when he bringeth it with a wicked mind?
28 עֵד־כְּזָבִים יֹאבֵד וְאִישׁ ומֵעַ לָנֶצַח יְדַבֵּר	28 A false witness shall perish: but the man that heareth speaketh constantly.
29 הֵעֵז אִישׁ רָשָׁע בְּפָנָיו וְיָשָׁר הוּא ׀ [יָכִין כ] (יָבִין ק) [דְּרָכָיו כ] (דַּרְכֹּו׃ ק)	29 A wicked man hardeneth his face: but as for the upright, he directeth his way.
30 אֵין חָכְמָה וְאֵין תְּבוּנָה וְאֵין עֵצָה לְנֶגֶד יְהוָה׃ פ	30 There is no wisdom nor understanding nor counsel against the LORD.
31 סוּס מוּכָן לְיֹום מִלְחָמָה וְלַיהוָה הַתְּשׁוּעָה	31 The horse is prepared against the day of battle: but safety is of the LORD.
