| Proverbs 15 Text (Latin)
|
- Responsio mollis frangit iram ; sermo durus suscitat furorem.
- Lingua sapientium ornat scientiam ; os fatuorum ebullit stultitiam.
- In omni loco, oculi Domini contemplantur bonos et malos.
- Lingua placabilis lignum vitæ ; quæ autem immoderata est conteret spiritum.
- Stultus irridet disciplinam patris sui ; qui autem custodit increpationes astutior fiet. In abundanti justitia virtus maxima est, cogitationes autem impiorum eradicabuntur.
- Domus justi plurima fortitudo, et in fructibus impii conturbatio.
- Labia sapientium disseminabunt scientiam ; cor stultorum dissimile erit.
- Victimæ impiorum abominabiles Domino ; vota justorum placabilia.
- Abominatio est Domino via impii ; qui sequitur justitiam diligitur ab eo.
- Doctrina mala deserenti viam vitæ ; qui increpationes odit, morietur.
- Infernus et perditio coram Domino ; quanto magis corda filiorum hominum !
- Non amat pestilens eum qui se corripit, nec ad sapientes graditur.
- Cor gaudens exhilarat faciem ; in mœrore animi dejicitur spiritus.
- Cor sapientis quærit doctrinam, et os stultorum pascitur imperitia.
- Omnes dies pauperis, mali ; secura mens quasi juge convivium.
- Melius est parum cum timore Domini, quam thesauri magni et insatiabiles.
- Melius est vocari ad olera cum caritate, quam ad vitulum saginatum cum odio.
- Vir iracundus provocat rixas ; qui patiens est mitigat suscitatas.
- Iter pigrorum quasi sepes spinarum ; via justorum absque offendiculo.
- Filius sapiens lætificat patrem, et stultus homo despicit matrem suam.
- Stultitia gaudium stulto, et vir prudens dirigit gressus suos.
- Dissipantur cogitationes ubi non est consilium ; ubi vero sunt plures consiliarii, confirmantur.
- Lætatur homo in sententia oris sui, et sermo opportunus est optimus.
- Semita vitæ super eruditum, ut declinet de inferno novissimo.
- Domum superborum demolietur Dominus, et firmos faciet terminos viduæ.
- Abominatio Domini cogitationes malæ, et purus sermo pulcherrimus firmabitur ab eo.
- Conturbat domum suam qui sectatur avaritiam ; qui autem odit munera vivet. Per misericordiam et fidem purgantur peccata, per timorem autem Domini declinat omnis a malo.
- Mens justi meditatur obedientiam ; os impiorum redundat malis.
- Longe est Dominus ab impiis, et orationes justorum exaudiet.
- Lux oculorum lætificat animam ; fama bona impinguat ossa.
- Auris quæ audit increpationes vitæ in medio sapientium commorabitur.
- Qui abjicit disciplinam despicit animam suam ; qui autem acquiescit increpationibus possessor est cordis.
- Timor Domini disciplina sapientiæ, et gloriam præcedit humilitas.

- The fear of the LORD is the instruction of wisdom; and before honour is humility.
