| Proverbs 27 Text (WEB)
|
- Don't boast about tomorrow; for you don't know what a day may bring forth.
- Let another man praise you, and not your own mouth; a stranger, and not your own lips.
- A stone is heavy, and sand is a burden; but a fool's provocation is heavier than both.
- Wrath is cruel, and anger is overwhelming; but who is able to stand before jealousy?
- Better is open rebuke than hidden love.
- Faithful are the wounds of a friend; although the kisses of an enemy are profuse.
- A full soul loathes a honeycomb; but to a hungry soul, every bitter thing is sweet.
- As a bird that wanders from her nest, so is a man who wanders from his home.
- Perfume and incense bring joy to the heart; so does earnest counsel from a man's friend.
- Don't forsake your friend and your father's friend. Don't go to your brother's house in the day of your disaster: better is a neighbor who is near than a distant brother.
- Be wise, my son, and bring joy to my heart, then I can answer my tormentor.
- A prudent man sees danger and takes refuge; but the simple pass on, and suffer for it.
- Take his garment when he puts up collateral for a stranger. Hold it for a wayward woman!
- He who blesses his neighbor with a loud voice early in the morning, it will be taken as a curse by him.
- A continual dropping on a rainy day and a contentious wife are alike:
- restraining her is like restraining the wind, or like grasping oil in his right hand.
- Iron sharpens iron; so a man sharpens his friend's countenance.
- Whoever tends the fig tree shall eat its fruit. He who looks after his master shall be honored.
- As water reflects a face, so a man's heart reflects the man.
- Sheol and Abaddon are never satisfied; and a man's eyes are never satisfied.
- The crucible is for silver, and the furnace for gold; but man is refined by his praise.
- Though you grind a fool in a mortar with a pestle along with grain, yet his foolishness will not be removed from him.
- Know well the state of your flocks, and pay attention to your herds:
- for riches are not forever, nor does even the crown endure to all generations.
- The hay is removed, and the new growth appears, the grasses of the hills are gathered in.
- The lambs are for your clothing, and the goats are the price of a field.
- There will be plenty of goats' milk for your food, for your family's food, and for the nourishment of your servant girls.

- אל־תתהלל ביום מחר כי לא־תדע מה־ילד יום׃
- יהללך זר ולא־פיך נכרי ואל־שפתיך׃
- כבד־אבן ונטל החול וכעס אויל כבד משניהם׃
- אכזריות חמה ושטף אף ומי יעמד לפני קנאה׃
- טובה תוכחת מגלה מאהבה מסתרת׃
- נאמנים פצעי אוהב ונעתרות נשיקות שונא׃
- נפש שבעה תבוס נפת ונפש רעבה כל־מר מתוק׃
- כצפור נודדת מן־קנה כן־איש נודד ממקומו׃
- שמן וקטרת ישמח־לב ומתק רעהו מעצת־נפש׃
- רעך אביך אל־תעזב ובית אחיך אל־תבוא ביום אידך טוב שכן קרוב מאח רחוק׃
- חכם בני ושמח לבי ואשיבה חרפי דבר׃
- ערום ראה רעה נסתר פתאים עברו נענשו׃
- קח־בגדו כי־ערב זר ובעד נכריה חבלהו׃
- מברך רעהו בקול גדול בבקר השכים קללה תחשב לו׃
- דלף טורד ביום סגריר ואשת נשתוה׃
- צפניה צפן־רוח ושמן ימינו יקרא׃
- ברזל בברזל יחד ואיש יחד פני־רעהו׃
- נצר תאנה יאכל פריה ושמר אדניו יכבד׃
- כמים הפנים לפנים כן לב־האדם לאדם׃
- שאול לא תשבענה ועיני האדם לא תשבענה׃
- מצרף לכסף וכור לזהב ואיש לפי מהללו׃
- אם תכתוש־את־האויל במכתש בתוך הריפות בעלי לא־תסור מעליו אולתו׃ ף
- ידע תדע פני צאנך שית לבך לעדרים׃
- כי לא לעולם חסן ואם־נזר לדור ׃
- גלה חציר ונראה־דשא ונאספו עשבות הרים׃
- כבשים ללבושך ומחיר שדה עתודים׃
- ודי חלב עזים ללחמך ללחם ביתך וחיים לנערותיך׃

| Proverbs 27 Text (Latin)
|
- Ne glorieris in crastinum, ignorans quid superventura pariat dies.
- Laudet te alienus, et non os tuum ; extraneus, et non labia tua.
- Grave est saxum, et onerosa arena, sed ira stulti utroque gravior.
- Ira non habet misericordiam nec erumpens furor, et impetum concitati ferre quis poterit ?
- Melior est manifesta correptio quam amor absconditus.
- Meliora sunt vulnera diligentis quam fraudulenta oscula odientis.
- Anima saturata calcabit favum, et anima esuriens etiam amarum pro dulci sumet.
- Sicut avis transmigrans de nido suo, sic vir qui derelinquit locum suum.
- Unguento et variis odoribus delectatur cor, et bonis amici consiliis anima dulcoratur.
- Amicum tuum, et amicum patris tui ne dimiseris, et domum fratris tui ne ingrediaris in die afflictionis tuæ. Melior est vicinus juxta, quam frater procul.
- Stude sapientiæ, fili mi, et lætifica cor meum, ut possis exprobranti respondere sermonem.
- Astutus videns malum, absconditus est : parvuli transeuntes sustinuerunt dispendia.
- Tolle vestimentum ejus qui spopondit pro extraneo, et pro alienis aufer ei pignus.
- Qui benedicit proximo suo voce grandi, de nocte consurgens maledicenti similis erit.
- Tecta perstillantia in die frigoris et litigiosa mulier comparantur.
- Qui retinet eam quasi qui ventum teneat, et oleum dexteræ suæ vocabit.
- Ferrum ferro exacuitur, et homo exacuit faciem amici sui.
- Qui servat ficum comedet fructus ejus, et qui custos est domini sui glorificabitur.
- Quomodo in aquis resplendent vultus prospicientium, sic corda hominum manifesta sunt prudentibus.
- Infernus et perditio numquam implentur : similiter et oculi hominum insatiabiles.
- Quomodo probatur in conflatorio argentum et in fornace aurum, sic probatur homo ore laudantis. Cor iniqui inquirit mala, cor autem rectum inquirit scientiam.
- Si contuderis stultum in pila quasi ptisanas feriente desuper pilo, non auferetur ab eo stultitia ejus.
- Diligenter agnosce vultum pecoris tui, tuosque greges considera :
- non enim habebis jugiter potestatem, sed corona tribuetur in generationem et generationem.
- Aperta sunt prata, et apparuerunt herbæ virentes, et collecta sunt fœna de montibus.
- Agni ad vestimentum tuum, et hædi ad agri pretium.
- Sufficiat tibi lac caprarum in cibos tuos, et in necessaria domus tuæ et ad victum ancillis tuis.

| Proverbs 27 Text (KJV)
|
- Boast not thyself of to morrow; for thou knowest not what a day may bring forth.
- Let another man praise thee, and not thine own mouth; a stranger, and not thine own lips.
- A stone is heavy, and the sand weighty; but a fool's wrath is heavier than them both.
- Wrath is cruel, and anger is outrageous; but who is able to stand before envy?
- Open rebuke is better than secret love.
- Faithful are the wounds of a friend; but the kisses of an enemy are deceitful.
- The full soul loatheth an honeycomb; but to the hungry soul every bitter thing is sweet.
- As a bird that wandereth from her nest, so is a man that wandereth from his place.
- Ointment and perfume rejoice the heart: so doth the sweetness of a man's friend by hearty counsel.
- Thine own friend, and thy father's friend, forsake not; neither go into thy brother's house in the day of thy calamity: for better is a neighbour that is near than a brother far off.
- My son, be wise, and make my heart glad, that I may answer him that reproacheth me.
- A prudent man foreseeth the evil, and hideth himself; but the simple pass on, and are punished.
- Take his garment that is surety for a stranger, and take a pledge of him for a strange woman.
- He that blesseth his friend with a loud voice, rising early in the morning, it shall be counted a curse to him.
- A continual dropping in a very rainy day and a contentious woman are alike.
- Whosoever hideth her hideth the wind, and the ointment of his right hand, which bewrayeth itself.
- Iron sharpeneth iron; so a man sharpeneth the countenance of his friend.
- Whoso keepeth the fig tree shall eat the fruit thereof: so he that waiteth on his master shall be honoured.
- As in water face answereth to face, so the heart of man to man.
- Hell and destruction are never full; so the eyes of man are never satisfied.
- As the fining pot for silver, and the furnace for gold; so is a man to his praise.
- Though thou shouldest bray a fool in a mortar among wheat with a pestle, yet will not his foolishness depart from him.
- Be thou diligent to know the state of thy flocks, and look well to thy herds.
- For riches are not for ever: and doth the crown endure to every generation?
- The hay appeareth, and the tender grass sheweth itself, and herbs of the mountains are gathered.
- The lambs are for thy clothing, and the goats are the price of the field.
- And thou shalt have goats' milk enough for thy food, for the food of thy household, and for the maintenance for thy maidens.
