Proverbs 20:1 (ERVEN) Easy to Read - English

1 Wine and beer make people lose control; they get loud and stumble around. And that is foolish.
2 An angry king is like a roaring lion. If you make him angry, you could lose your life.
3 People who refuse to argue deserve respect. Any fool can start an argument.
4 Some people are too lazy to plant seeds. So at harvest time, they look for food and find nothing.
5 Getting information from someone can be like getting water from a deep well. If you are smart, you will draw it out.
6 You might call many people your "friends," but it is hard to find someone who can really be trusted.
7 When people live good, honest lives, their children are blessed.
8 When the king sits and judges people, he must look carefully to separate the evil from the good.
9 Can anyone say their heart is pure? Who can say, "I am free from sin"?
10 The Lord hates for people to use the wrong weights and measures to cheat others.
11 Even children show what they are like by the things they do. You can see if their actions are pure and right.
12 It was the Lord who gave us eyes for seeing and ears for hearing.
13 If you love to sleep, you will become poor. Use your time working and you will have plenty to eat.
14 When buying something, people always say, "It's no good. It costs too much." Then they go away and tell others what a good deal they got.
15 The right knowledge can bring you gold, pearls, and other expensive things.
16 If someone promises to pay the debt of a stranger, get a coat or something from him to keep until the debt is paid.
17 It may seem to be a good thing to get something by cheating, but in the end, it will be worth nothing.
18 Get good advice when you make your plans. Before you start a war, find good advisors.
19 You cannot trust someone who would talk about things told in private. So don't be friends with someone who talks too much.
20 Those who would curse their father or mother are like a lamp that goes out on the darkest night.
21 If your wealth was easy to get, it will not be worth much to you.
22 Don't ever say, "I'll pay them back for what they did to me!" Wait for the Lord. He will make things right.
23 The Lord hates for people to use the wrong weights to cheat others. It is wrong to use scales that are not accurate.
24 The Lord guides our steps, and we never know where he will lead us.
25 Think carefully before you promise to give something to God. Later, you might wish you had not made that promise.
26 Like a farmer who separates wheat from the chaff, a wise king will decide who is wrong and crush them.
27 Your spirit is like a lamp to the Lord. He is able to see into your deepest parts.
28 A king who is loyal and true will keep his power. Loyalty will keep his kingdom strong.
29 We admire a young man for his strength, but we respect an old man for his gray hair.
30 A beating can remove evil and make you completely clean.
1 Wine H3196 is a mocker, H3887 strong drink H7941 is raging: H1993 and whosoever H3605 is deceived H7686 thereby is not H3808 wise. H2449
2 The fear H367 of a king H4428 is as the roaring H5099 of a lion: H3715 whoso provoketh him to anger H5674 sinneth H2398 against his own soul. H5315
3 It is an honor H3519 for a man H376 to cease H7674 from strife H4480 H7379 : but every H3605 fool H191 will be meddling. H1566
4 The sluggard H6102 will not H3808 plow H2790 by reason of the cold H4480 H2779 ; therefore shall he beg H7592 in harvest, H7105 and have nothing. H369
5 Counsel H6098 in the heart H3820 of man H376 is like deep H6013 water; H4325 but a man H376 of understanding H8394 will draw it out. H1802
6 Most H7230 men H120 will proclaim H7121 every one H376 his own goodness: H2617 but a faithful H529 man H376 who H4310 can find H4672 ?
7 The just H6662 man walketh H1980 in his integrity: H8537 his children H1121 are blessed H835 after H310 him.
8 A king H4428 that sitteth H3427 in H5921 the throne H3678 of judgment H1779 scattereth away H2219 all H3605 evil H7451 with his eyes. H5869
9 Who H4310 can say, H559 I have made my heart H3820 clean, H2135 I am pure H2891 from my sin H4480 H2403 ?
10 Divers weights H68 H68 , and divers measures H374 H374 , both H8147 of them are alike H1571 abomination H8441 to the LORD. H3068
11 Even H1571 a child H5288 is known H5234 by his doings, H4611 whether H518 his work H6467 be pure, H2134 and whether H518 it be right. H3477
12 The hearing H8085 ear, H241 and the seeing H7200 eye, H5869 the LORD H3068 hath made H6213 even H1571 both H8147 of them.
13 Love H157 not H408 sleep, H8142 lest H6435 thou come to poverty; H3423 open H6491 thine eyes, H5869 and thou shalt be satisfied H7646 with bread. H3899
14 It is naught, H7451 it is naught, H7451 saith H559 the buyer: H7069 but when he is gone his way, H235 then H227 he boasteth. H1984
15 There is H3426 gold, H2091 and a multitude H7230 of rubies: H6443 but the lips H8193 of knowledge H1847 are a precious H3366 jewel. H3627
16 Take H3947 his garment H899 that H3588 is surety H6148 for a stranger: H2114 and take a pledge H2254 of him for H1157 a strange woman. H5237
17 Bread H3899 of deceit H8267 is sweet H6156 to a man; H376 but afterwards H310 his mouth H6310 shall be filled H4390 with gravel. H2687
18 Every purpose H4284 is established H3559 by counsel: H6098 and with good advice H8458 make H6213 war. H4421
19 He that goeth about H1980 as a talebearer H7400 revealeth H1540 secrets: H5475 therefore meddle H6148 not H3808 with him that flattereth H6601 with his lips. H8193
20 Whoso curseth H7043 his father H1 or his mother, H517 his lamp H5216 shall be put out H1846 in obscure H380 darkness. H2822
21 An inheritance H5159 may be gotten hastily H926 at the beginning; H7223 but the end H319 thereof shall not H3808 be blessed. H1288
22 Say H559 not H408 thou , I will recompense H7999 evil; H7451 but wait H6960 on the LORD, H3068 and he shall save H3467 thee.
23 Divers weights H68 H68 are an abomination H8441 unto the LORD; H3068 and a false H4820 balance H3976 is not H3808 good. H2896
24 Man H1397 's goings H4703 are of the LORD H4480 H3068 ; how H4100 can a man H120 then understand H995 his own way H1870 ?
25 It is a snare H4170 to the man H120 who devoureth H3216 that which is holy, H6944 and after H310 vows H5088 to make inquiry. H1239
26 A wise H2450 king H4428 scattereth H2219 the wicked, H7563 and bringeth H7725 the wheel H212 over H5921 them.
27 The spirit H5397 of man H120 is the candle H5216 of the LORD, H3068 searching H2664 all H3605 the inward parts H2315 of the belly. H990
28 Mercy H2617 and truth H571 preserve H5341 the king: H4428 and his throne H3678 is upheld H5582 by mercy. H2617
29 The glory H8597 of young men H970 is their strength: H3581 and the beauty H1926 of old men H2205 is the gray head. H7872
30 The blueness H2250 of a wound H6482 cleanseth away H8562 evil: H7451 so do stripes H4347 the inward parts H2315 of the belly. H990
