Proverbs 1 : 1 (LXXEN)

The Proverbs of Solomon son of David, who reigned in Israel;

Proverbs 1 : 2 (LXXEN)

to know wisdom and instruction, and to perceive words of understanding;

Proverbs 1 : 3 (LXXEN)

to receive also *Gr. turnings; q. d. knotty words; See Heb. hard saying, and to understand true justice, and how to direct judgement;

Proverbs 1 : 4 (LXXEN)

that he might give subtlety to the simple, and to the young man *Or, discretion discernment and understanding.

Proverbs 1 : 5 (LXXEN)

For by the hearing of these a wise man will be wiser, and man of understanding will gain direction;

Proverbs 1 : 6 (LXXEN)

and will understand a parable, and a dark speech; the saying of the wise also, and riddles.

Proverbs 1 : 7 (LXXEN)

The fear of the Lord is the *Or, sum, or, top beginning of wisdom; and there is good understanding to all that practise it: and piety toward God is the beginning of discernment; but the ungodly will set at nought wisdom and instruction.

My son, let not ungodly men lead thee astray, neither consent thou to them.

Proverbs 1 : 11 (LXXEN)

If they should exhort thee, saying, Come with us, partake in blood, and let us unjustly hide the just man in the earth:

Proverbs 1 : 12 (LXXEN)

and let us swallow him alive, as Hades would, and remove the memorial of him from the earth:

Proverbs 1 : 13 (LXXEN)

let us seize on his valuable property, and let us fill our houses with spoils:

Proverbs 1 : 14 (LXXEN)

but do thou cast in thy lot with us, and let us all provide a common purse, and let us have one pouch:

Proverbs 1 : 15 (LXXEN)

go not in the way with them, but turn aside thy foot from their paths:

Proverbs 1 : 16 (LXXEN)

*Alex. For their feet run to do evil, and are swift to shed blood.

And she makes proclamation on the top of the walls, and sits by the gates of princes; and at the gates of the city boldly says,

Proverbs 1 : 22 (LXXEN)

So long as the simple cleave to justice, they shall not be ashamed: but the foolish being lovers of haughtiness, having become ungodly have hated knowledge, and are become subject to reproofs.

Proverbs 1 : 23 (LXXEN)

Behold, I will bring forth to you the utterance of my breath, and I will instruct you in my speech.

Proverbs 1 : 24 (LXXEN)

Since I called, and ye did not hearken; and I spoke at length, and ye gave no heed;

Proverbs 1 : 25 (LXXEN)

but ye set at nought my counsels, and disregarded my reproofs;

Proverbs 1 : 26 (LXXEN)

therefore I also will laugh at your destruction; and I will rejoice against you when ruin comes upon you:

Proverbs 1 : 27 (LXXEN)

yea when dismay suddenly comes upon you, and your overthrow shall arrive like a tempest; and when tribulation and distress shall come upon you, or when ruin shall come upon you.

Proverbs 1 : 28 (LXXEN)

For it shall be that when ye call upon me, I will not hearken to you: wicked men shall seek me, but shall not find me.

Proverbs 1 : 29 (LXXEN)

For they hated wisdom, and did not choose the word of the Lord:

Proverbs 1 : 30 (LXXEN)

neither would they attend to my counsels, but derided my reproofs.

Proverbs 1 : 31 (LXXEN)

Therefore shall they eat the fruits of their own way, and shall be filled with their own ungodliness.

Proverbs 1 : 32 (LXXEN)

For because they wronged the simple, they shall be slain; and an inquisition shall ruin the ungodly.

Proverbs 1 : 33 (LXXEN)

But he that hearkens to me shall dwell in *Gr. hope; See Ps. 16 confidence, and shall rest securely from all evil.
