1 There is not a more wicked thing than to love money: for such a one setteth even his own soul to sale: because while he liveth he hath cast away his bowels. | 1 A wise magistrate lends stability to his people, and the government of a prudent man is well ordered. |
2 dummy verses inserted by amos | 2 As the people's judge, so are his ministers; as the head of a city, its inhabitants. |
3 dummy verses inserted by amos | 3 A wanton king destroys his people, but a city grows through the wisdom of its princes. |
4 dummy verses inserted by amos | 4 Sovereignty over the earth is in the hand of God, who raises up on it the man of the hour; |
5 dummy verses inserted by amos | 5 Sovereignty over every man is in the hand of God, who imparts his majesty to the ruler. |
6 dummy verses inserted by amos | 6 No matter the wrong, do no violence to your neighbor, and do not walk the path of arrogance. |
7 dummy verses inserted by amos | 7 Odious to the LORD and to men is arrogance, and the sin of oppression they both hate. |
8 dummy verses inserted by amos | 8 Dominion is transferred from one people to another because of the violence of the arrogant. |
9 dummy verses inserted by amos | 9 Why are dust and ashes proud? even during life man's body decays; |
10 dummy verses inserted by amos | 10 A slight illness--the doctor jests, a king today--tomorrow he is dead. |
11 All power is of short life. A long sickness is troublesome to the physician. | 11 When a man dies, he inherits corruption; worms and gnats and maggots. |
12 The physician cutteth off it short sickness: so also a king is to day, and to morrow he shall die. | 12 The beginning of pride is man's stubbornness in withdrawing his heart from his Maker; |
13 For when a man shall die, he shall inherit serpents, end beasts, and worms. | 13 For pride is the reservoir of sin, a source which runs over with vice; Because of it God sends unheard-of afflictions and brings men to utter ruin. |
14 The beginning of the pride of man, is to fall off from God: | 14 The thrones of the arrogant God overturns and establishes the lowly in their stead. |
15 Because his heart is departed from him that made him: for pride is the beginning of all sin: be that holdeth it, shall be filled with maledictions, and it shall ruin him in the end. | 15 The roots of the proud God plucks up, to plant the humble in their place: |
16 Therefore hath the Lord disgraced the assemblies of the wicked, and hath utterly destroyed them. | 16 He breaks down their stem to the level of the ground, then digs their roots from the earth. |
17 God hath overturned the thrones of proud princes, and hath set up the meek in their stead. | 17 The traces of the proud God sweeps away and effaces the memory of them from the earth. |
18 God hath made the roots of proud nations to wither, and hath planted the humble of these nations. | 18 Insolence is not allotted to a man, nor stubborn anger to one born of woman. |
19 The Lord hath overthrown the lands of the Gentiles, and hath destroyed them even to the foundation. | 19 Whose offspring can be in honor? Those of men. Which offspring are in honor? Those who fear God. Whose offspring can be in disgrace? Those of men. Which offspring are in disgrace? Those who transgress the commandments. |
20 He hath made some of them to wither away, and hath destroyed them, and hath made the memory of them to cease from the earth. | 20 Among brethren their leader is in honor; he who fears God is in honor among his people. |
21 God hath abolished the memory of the proud, and hath preserved the memory of them that are humble in mind. | 21 Be it tenant or wayfarer, alien or pauper, his glory is the fear of the LORD. |
22 Pride was not made for men: nor wrath for the race of women. | 22 It is not just to despise a man who is wise but poor, nor proper to honor any sinner. |
23 That seed of men shall be honoured, which feareth God: but that seed shall be dishonoured, which transgresseth the commandments of the Lord. | 23 The prince, the ruler, the judge are in honor; but none is greater than he who fears God. |
24 In the midst of brethren their chief is honourable: so shall they that fear the Lord, be in his eyes. | 24 When free men serve a prudent slave, the wise man does not complain. |
25 The fear of God is the glory of the rich, and of the honourable, and of the poor: | 25 Flaunt not your wisdom in managing your affairs, and boast not in your time of need. |
26 Despise not a just man that is poor, and do not magnify a sinful man that is rich. | 26 Better the worker who has plenty of everything than the boaster who is without bread. |
27 The great man, and the judge, and the mighty is in honour: and there is none greater than he that feareth God. | 27 My son, with humility have self-esteem; prize yourself as you deserve. |
28 They that are free shall serve a servant that is wise: and a man that is prudent and well instructed will not murmur when he is reproved; and he that is ignorant, shall not be honoured. | 28 Who will acquit him who condemns himself? who will honor him who discredits himself? |
29 Extol not thyself in doing thy work, and linger not in the time of distress: | 29 The poor man is honored for his wisdom as the rich man is honored for his wealth; |
30 Better is he that laboureth, and aboundeth in all things, than he that boasteth himself and wanteth bread. | 30 Honored in poverty, how much more so in wealth! Dishonored in wealth, in poverty how much the more! |
31 My son, keep thy soul in meekness, and give it honour according to its desert. | |
32 Who will justify him that sinneth against his own soul? and who will honour him that dishonoureth his own soul? | |
33 The poor man is glorified by his discipline and fear: and there is a man that is honoured for his wealth. | |
34 But he that is glorified in poverty, how much more in wealth? and he that is glorified in wealth, let him fear poverty. |
