King James Strong Number Version » Proverbs » Chapter 20
1
Wine [3196] [is] a mocker, [3887] strong drink [7941] [is] raging: [1993] and whosoever is deceived [7686] thereby is not wise. [2449]
2
The fear [0367] of a king [4428] [is] as the roaring [5099] of a lion: [3715] [whoso] provoketh him to anger [5674] sinneth [2398] [against] his own soul. [5315]
3
[It is] an honour [3519] for a man [0376] to cease [7674] from strife: [7379] but every fool [0191] will be meddling. [1566]
4
The sluggard [6102] will not plow [2790] by reason of the cold; [2779] [therefore] shall he beg [7592] in harvest, [7105] and [have] nothing.
5
Counsel [6098] in the heart [3820] of man [0376] [is like] deep [6013] water; [4325] but a man [0376] of understanding [8394] will draw it out. [1802]
6
Most [7230] men [0120] will proclaim [7121] every one [0376] his own goodness: [2617] but a faithful [0529] man [0376] who can find? [4672]
7
The just [6662] [man] walketh [1980] in his integrity: [8537] his children [1121] [are] blessed [0835] after [0310] him.
8
A king [4428] that sitteth [3427] in the throne [3678] of judgment [1779] scattereth away [2219] all evil [7451] with his eyes. [5869]
9
Who can say, [0559] I have made my heart [3820] clean, [2135] I am pure [2891] from my sin? [2403]
10
Divers weights, [0068] [0068] [and] divers measures, [0374] [0374] both [8147] of them [are] alike [1571] abomination [8441] to the LORD. [3068]
11
Even a child [5288] is known [5234] by his doings, [4611] whether his work [6467] [be] pure, [2134] and whether [it be] right. [3477]
12
The hearing [8085] ear, [0241] and the seeing [7200] eye, [5869] the LORD [3068] hath made [6213] even both [8147] of them.
13
Love [0157] not sleep, [8142] lest thou come to poverty; [3423] open [6491] thine eyes, [5869] [and] thou shalt be satisfied [7646] with bread. [3899]
14
[It is] naught, [7451] [it is] naught, [7451] saith [0559] the buyer: [7069] but when he is gone [0235] his way, then he boasteth. [1984]
15
There is [3426] gold, [2091] and a multitude [7230] of rubies: [6443] but the lips [8193] of knowledge [1847] [are] a precious [3366] jewel. [3627]
16
Take [3947] his garment [0899] that is surety [6148] [for] a stranger: [2114] and take a pledge [2254] of him for a strange [5237] woman.
17
Bread [3899] of deceit [8267] [is] sweet [6156] to a man; [0376] but afterwards [0310] his mouth [6310] shall be filled [4390] with gravel. [2687]
18
[Every] purpose [4284] is established [3559] by counsel: [6098] and with good advice [8458] make [6213] war. [4421]
19
He that goeth about [1980] [as] a talebearer [7400] revealeth [1540] secrets: [5475] therefore meddle [6148] not with him that flattereth [6601] with his lips. [8193]
20
Whoso curseth [7043] his father [0001] or his mother, [0517] his lamp [5216] shall be put out [1846] in obscure [0380][0380] darkness. [2822]
21
An inheritance [5159] [may be] gotten hastily [0926] at the beginning; [7223] but the end thereof [0319] shall not be blessed. [1288]
22
Say [0559] not thou, I will recompense [7999] evil; [7451] [but] wait [6960] on the LORD, [3068] and he shall save [3467] thee.
23
Divers weights [0068] [0068] [are] an abomination [8441] unto the LORD; [3068] and a false [4820] balance [3976] [is] not good. [2896]
24
Man's [1397] goings [4703] [are] of the LORD; [3068] how can a man [0120] then understand [0995] his own way? [1870]
25
[It is] a snare [4170] to the man [0120] [who] devoureth [3216] [that which is] holy, [6944] and after [0310] vows [5088] to make enquiry. [1239]
26
A wise [2450] king [4428] scattereth [2219] the wicked, [7563] and bringeth [7725] the wheel [0212] over them.
27
The spirit [5397] of man [0120] [is] the candle [5216] of the LORD, [3068] searching [2664] all the inward parts [2315] of the belly. [0990]
28
Mercy [2617] and truth [0571] preserve [5341] the king: [4428] and his throne [3678] is upholden [5582] by mercy. [2617]
29
The glory [8597] of young men [0970] [is] their strength: [3581] and the beauty [1926] of old men [2205] [is] the gray head. [7872]
30
The blueness [2250] of a wound [6482] cleanseth [8562] away evil: [7451] so [do] stripes [4347] the inward parts [2315] of the belly. [0990]
