Proverbs Глава 4 - King James Version
- 1
- Hear, ye children, the instruction of a father, and attend to know understanding.
- 2
- For I give you good doctrine, forsake ye not my law.
- 3
- For I was my father's son, tender and only beloved in the sight of my mother.
- 4
- He taught me also, and said unto me, Let thine heart retain my words: keep my commandments, and live.
- 5
- Get wisdom, get understanding: forget it not; neither decline from the words of my mouth.
- 6
- Forsake her not, and she shall preserve thee: love her, and she shall keep thee.
- 7
- Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom: and with all thy getting get understanding.
- 8
- Exalt her, and she shall promote thee: she shall bring thee to honour, when thou dost embrace her.
- 9
- She shall give to thine head an ornament of grace: a crown of glory shall she deliver to thee.
- 10
- Hear, O my son, and receive my sayings; and the years of thy life shall be many.
- 11
- I have taught thee in the way of wisdom; I have led thee in right paths.
- 12
- When thou goest, thy steps shall not be straitened; and when thou runnest, thou shalt not stumble.
- 13
- Take fast hold of instruction; let her not go: keep her; for she is thy life.
- 14
- Enter not into the path of the wicked, and go not in the way of evil men.
- 15
- Avoid it, pass not by it, turn from it, and pass away.
- 16
- For they sleep not, except they have done mischief; and their sleep is taken away, unless they cause some to fall.
- 17
- For they eat the bread of wickedness, and drink the wine of violence.
- 18
- But the path of the just is as the shining light, that shineth more and more unto the perfect day.
- 19
- The way of the wicked is as darkness: they know not at what they stumble.
- 20
- My son, attend to my words; incline thine ear unto my sayings.
- 21
- Let them not depart from thine eyes; keep them in the midst of thine heart.
- 22
- For they are life unto those that find them, and health to all their flesh.
- 23
- Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life.
- 24
- Put away from thee a froward mouth, and perverse lips put far from thee.
- 25
- Let thine eyes look right on, and let thine eyelids look straight before thee.
- 26
- Ponder the path of thy feet, and let all thy ways be established.
- 27
- Turn not to the right hand nor to the left: remove thy foot from evil.
