1After many rebukes, the stiff-necked man will be broken incurably, without any warning.

1אִ֣ישׁ תּ֭וֹכָחוֹת מַקְשֶׁה־ עֹ֑רֶף פֶּ֥תַע יִ֝שָּׁבֵ֗ר וְאֵ֣ין מַרְפֵּֽא׃

2As the righteous grow powerful, people rejoice; but when the wicked rule, people groan.

2בִּרְב֣וֹת צַ֭דִּיקִים יִשְׂמַ֣ח הָעָ֑ם וּבִמְשֹׁ֥ל רָ֝שָׁ֗ע יֵאָ֥נַֽח עָֽם׃

3The man who loves wisdom brings joy to his father, but anyone who consorts with immoral women squanders his wealth.

3אִֽישׁ־ אֹהֵ֣ב חָ֭כְמָה יְשַׂמַּ֣ח אָבִ֑יו וְרֹעֶ֥ה ז֝וֹנ֗וֹת יְאַבֶּד־ הֽוֹן׃

4A king brings stability to a land through justice, but a man who takes bribes brings it to ruin.

4מֶ֗לֶךְ בְּ֭מִשְׁפָּט יַעֲמִ֣יד אָ֑רֶץ וְאִ֖ישׁ תְּרוּמ֣וֹת יֶֽהֶרְסֶֽנָּה׃

5A strong man who flatters his neighbor is setting a trap where he walks.

5גֶּ֭בֶר מַחֲלִ֣יק עַל־ רֵעֵ֑הוּ רֶ֝֗שֶׁת פּוֹרֵ֥שׂ עַל־ פְּעָמָֽיו׃

6An evil man is trapped by transgression, but the righteous person sings and rejoices.

6בְּפֶ֤שַֽׁע אִ֣ישׁ רָ֣ע מוֹקֵ֑שׁ וְ֝צַדִּ֗יק יָר֥וּן וְשָׂמֵֽחַ׃

7The righteous person is concerned about the poor; but the wicked don't understand what they need to know.

7יֹדֵ֣עַ צַ֭דִּיק דִּ֣ין דַּלִּ֑ים רָ֝שָׁ֗ע לֹא־ יָבִ֥ין דָּֽעַת׃

8Scornful men enflame a city, but the wise defuse anger.

8אַנְשֵׁ֣י לָ֭צוֹן יָפִ֣יחוּ קִרְיָ֑ה וַ֝חֲכָמִ֗ים יָשִׁ֥יבוּ אָֽף׃

9When a wise man has a dispute with a fool, the fool either rages or laughs without relief.

9אִֽישׁ־ חָכָ֗ם נִ֭שְׁפָּט אֶת־ אִ֣ישׁ אֱוִ֑יל וְרָגַ֥ז וְ֝שָׂחַ֗ק וְאֵ֣ין נָֽחַת׃

10Bloodthirsty men hate the innocent person, but the upright show concern for his life.

10אַנְשֵׁ֣י דָ֭מִים יִשְׂנְאוּ־ תָ֑ם וִֽ֝ישָׁרִ֗ים יְבַקְשׁ֥וּ נַפְשֽׁוֹ׃

11The fool vents all his feelings, but the wise person keeps them to himself.

11כָּל־ ר֭וּחוֹ יוֹצִ֣יא כְסִ֑יל וְ֝חָכָ֗ם בְּאָח֥וֹר יְשַׁבְּחֶֽנָּה׃

12When a ruler is listening to lies, all of his officials tend to become wicked.

12מֹ֭שֵׁל מַקְשִׁ֣יב עַל־ דְּבַר־ שָׁ֑קֶר כָּֽל־ מְשָׁרְתָ֥יו רְשָׁעִֽים׃

13The poor man and the oppressor have this in common: the LORD gave them both eyes with which to see.

13רָ֤שׁ וְאִ֣ישׁ תְּכָכִ֣ים נִפְגָּ֑שׁוּ מֵ֤אִיר־ עֵינֵ֖י שְׁנֵיהֶ֣ם יְהוָֽה׃

14When a king faithfully administers justice to the poor, his throne will be established forever.

14מֶ֤לֶךְ שׁוֹפֵ֣ט בֶּֽאֱמֶ֣ת דַּלִּ֑ים כִּ֝סְא֗וֹ לָעַ֥ד יִכּֽוֹן׃

15The rod and rebuke bestow wisdom, but an undisciplined child brings shame to his mother.

15שֵׁ֣בֶט וְ֭תוֹכַחַת יִתֵּ֣ן חָכְמָ֑ה וְנַ֥עַר מְ֝שֻׁלָּ֗ח מֵבִ֥ישׁ אִמּֽוֹ׃

16As the wicked grow powerful, transgression increases, but the righteous will observe their downfall.

16בִּרְב֣וֹת רְ֭שָׁעִים יִרְבֶּה־ פָּ֑שַׁע וְ֝צַדִּיקִ֗ים בְּֽמַפַּלְתָּ֥ם יִרְאֽוּ׃

17Correct your son and he will comfort you; he will also delight your soul.

17יַסֵּ֣ר בִּ֭נְךָ וִֽינִיחֶ֑ךָ וְיִתֵּ֖ן מַעֲדַנִּ֣ים לְנַפְשֶֽׁךָ׃ פ

18Without prophetic vision, people abandon restraint, but those who obey the Law are happy.

18בְּאֵ֣ין חָ֭זוֹן יִפָּ֣רַֽע עָ֑ם וְשֹׁמֵ֖ר תּוֹרָ֣ה אַשְׁרֵֽהוּ׃

19By mere words a servant will not be corrected; even though he understands, there will be no response.

19בִּ֭דְבָרִים לֹא־ יִוָּ֣סֶר עָ֑בֶד כִּֽי־ יָ֝בִ֗ין וְאֵ֣ין מַעֲנֶֽה׃

20Do you see a man who speaks hastily? There is more hope for a fool than for him.

20חָזִ֗יתָ אִ֭ישׁ אָ֣ץ בִּדְבָרָ֑יו תִּקְוָ֖ה לִכְסִ֣יל מִמֶּֽנּוּ׃

21If you pamper a servant from his childhood, later on he'll become ungrateful.

21מְפַנֵּ֣ק מִנֹּ֣עַר עַבְדּ֑וֹ וְ֝אַחֲרִית֗וֹ יִהְיֶ֥ה מָנֽוֹן׃

22An angry man stirs up arguments, and a hot-tempered man causes many transgressions.

22אִֽישׁ־ אַ֭ף יְגָרֶ֣ה מָד֑וֹן וּבַ֖עַל חֵמָ֣ה רַב־ פָּֽשַׁע׃

23A person's pride will bring about his downfall, but the humble in spirit will gain honor.

23גַּאֲוַ֣ת אָ֭דָם תַּשְׁפִּילֶ֑נּוּ וּשְׁפַל־ ר֝֗וּחַ יִתְמֹ֥ךְ כָּבֽוֹד׃

24A thief's accomplice hates himself; though testifying under oath, he reveals nothing.

24חוֹלֵ֣ק עִם־ גַּ֭נָּב שׂוֹנֵ֣א נַפְשׁ֑וֹ אָלָ֥ה יִ֝שְׁמַ֗ע וְלֹ֣א יַגִּֽיד׃

25Fearing any human being is a trap, but confiding in the LORD keeps anyone safe.

25חֶרְדַּ֣ת אָ֭דָם יִתֵּ֣ן מוֹקֵ֑שׁ וּבוֹטֵ֖חַ בַּיהוָ֣ה יְשֻׂגָּֽב׃

26Many seek a ruler's favor, but justice for a man comes from the LORD.

26רַ֭בִּים מְבַקְשִׁ֣ים פְּנֵי־ מוֹשֵׁ֑ל וּ֝מֵיְהוָ֗ה מִשְׁפַּט־ אִֽישׁ׃

27The unjust man is detestable to the righteous, and whoever lives blamelessly is detestable to the wicked.

27תּוֹעֲבַ֣ת צַ֭דִּיקִים אִ֣ישׁ עָ֑וֶל וְתוֹעֲבַ֖ת רָשָׁ֣ע יְשַׁר־ דָּֽרֶךְ׃ פ
