Verse 1א׳Standard2,470

טֽוֹב־רָשׁ הוֹלֵךְ בְּתֻמּוֹ מֵעִקֵּשׁ שְׂפָתָיו וְהוּא כְסִֽיל

Better is the poor that walketh in his integrity Than he that is perverse in his lips and a fool at the same time.

Verse 2ב׳Standard1,434

גַּם בְּלֹא־דַעַת נֶפֶשׁ לֹא־טוֹב וְאָץ בְּרַגְלַיִם חוֹטֵֽא

Also, that the soul be without knowledge is not good; And he that hasteth with his feet sinneth.

Verse 3ג׳Standard1,619

אִוֶּלֶת אָדָם תְּסַלֵּף דַּרְכּוֹ וְעַל־יְהוָה יִזְעַף לִבּֽוֹ

The foolishness of man perverteth his way; And his heart fretteth against the LORD.

Verse 4ד׳Standard1,448

הוֹן יֹסִיף רֵעִים רַבִּים וְדָל מֵרֵעהוּ יִפָּרֵֽד

Wealth addeth many friends; But as for the poor, his friend separateth himself from him.

Verse 5ה׳Standard1,233

עֵד שְׁקָרִים לֹא יִנָּקֶה וְיָפִיחַ כְּזָבִים לֹא יִמָּלֵֽט

A false witness shall not be unpunished; And he that breatheth forth lies shall not escape.

Verse 6ו׳Standard1,674

רַבִּים יְחַלּוּ פְנֵֽי־נָדִיב וְכָל־הָרֵעַ לְאִישׁ מַתָּֽן

Many will entreat the favour of the liberal man; And every man is a friend to him that giveth gifts.

Verse 7ז׳Standard2,509

כָּל אֲחֵי־רָשׁ שְֽׂנֵאֻהוּ אַף כִּי מְרֵעֵהוּ רָחֲקוּ מִמֶּנּוּ מְרַדֵּף אֲמָרִים לא־הֵֽמָּה

All the brethren of the poor do hate him; How much more do his friends go far from him! He that pursueth words, they turn against him.

Verse 8ח׳Standard1,812

קֹֽנֶה־לֵּב אֹהֵב נַפְשׁוֹ שֹׁמֵר תְּבוּנָה לִמְצֹא־טֽוֹב

He that getteth wisdom loveth his own soul; He that keepeth understanding shall find good.

Verse 9ט׳Standard1,130

עֵד שְׁקָרִים לֹא יִנָּקֶה וְיָפִיחַ כְּזָבִים יֹאבֵֽד

A false witness shall not be unpunished; And he that breatheth forth lies shall perish.

לֹֽא־נָאוֶה לִכְסִיל תַּעֲנוּג אַף כִּֽי־לְעֶבֶד מְשֹׁל בְּשָׂרִֽים

Luxury is not seemly for a fool; Much less for a servant to have rule over princes.
