Proverbs 10 KJV
Proverbs 10 KJV
¶
1
The
proverbs
of
Solomon.
A
wise
son
maketh
a
glad
father:
but
a
foolish
son
is
the
heaviness
of
his
mother.
¶
2
Treasures
of
wickedness
profit
nothing:
but
righteousness
delivereth
from
death.
3
The
LORD
will
not
suffer
the
soul
of
the
righteous
to
famish:
but
he
casteth
away
the
substance
of
the
wicked.
¶
4
He
becometh
poor
that
dealeth
with
a
slack
hand:
but
the
hand
of
the
diligent
maketh
rich.
¶
5
He
that
gathereth
in
summer
is
a
wise
son:
but
he
that
sleepeth
in
harvest
is
a
son
that
causeth
shame.
¶
6
Blessings
are
upon
the
head
of
the
just:
but
violence
covereth
the
mouth
of
the
wicked.
¶
7
The
memory
of
the
just
is
blessed:
but
the
name
of
the
wicked
shall
rot.
¶
8
The
wise
in
heart
will
receive
commandments:
but
a
prating
fool
shall
fall.
¶
9
He
that
walketh
uprightly
walketh
surely:
but
he
that
perverteth
his
ways
shall
be
known.
¶
10
He
that
winketh
with
the
eye
causeth
sorrow:
but
a
prating
fool
shall
fall.
¶
11
The
mouth
of
a
righteous
man
is
a
well
of
life:
but
violence
covereth
the
mouth
of
the
wicked.
¶
12
Hatred
stirreth
up
strifes:
but
love
covereth
all
sins.
¶
13
In
the
lips
of
him
that
hath
understanding
wisdom
is
found:
but
a
rod
is
for
the
back
of
him
that
is
void
of
understanding.
¶
14
Wise
men
lay
up
knowledge:
but
the
mouth
of
the
foolish
is
near
destruction.
¶
15
The
rich
man's
wealth
is
his
strong
city:
the
destruction
of
the
poor
is
their
poverty.
¶
16
The
labour
of
the
righteous
tendeth
to
life:
the
fruit
of
the
wicked
to
sin.
¶
17
He
is
in
the
way
of
life
that
keepeth
instruction:
but
he
that
refuseth
reproof
erreth.
¶
18
He
that
hideth
hatred
with
lying
lips,
and
he
that
uttereth
a
slander,
is
a
fool.
¶
19
In
the
multitude
of
words
there
wanteth
not
sin:
but
he
that
refraineth
his
lips
is
wise.
¶
20
The
tongue
of
the
just
is
as
choice
silver:
the
heart
of
the
wicked
is
little
worth.
21
The
lips
of
the
righteous
feed
many:
but
fools
die
for
want
of
wisdom.
¶
22
The
blessing
of
the
LORD,
it
maketh
rich,
and
he
addeth
no
sorrow
with
it.
¶
23
It
is
as
sport
to
a
fool
to
do
mischief:
but
a
man
of
understanding
hath
wisdom.
¶
24
The
fear
of
the
wicked,
it
shall
come
upon
him:
but
the
desire
of
the
righteous
shall
be
granted.
25
As
the
whirlwind
passeth,
so
is
the
wicked
no
more:
but
the
righteous
is
an
everlasting
foundation.
¶
26
As
vinegar
to
the
teeth,
and
as
smoke
to
the
eyes,
so
is
the
sluggard
to
them
that
send
him.
¶
27
The
fear
of
the
LORD
prolongeth
days:
but
the
years
of
the
wicked
shall
be
shortened.
28
The
hope
of
the
righteous
shall
be
gladness:
but
the
expectation
of
the
wicked
shall
perish.
¶
29
The
way
of
the
LORD
is
strength
to
the
upright:
but
destruction
shall
be
to
the
workers
of
iniquity.
30
The
righteous
shall
never
be
removed:
but
the
wicked
shall
not
inhabit
the
earth.
¶
31
The
mouth
of
the
just
bringeth
forth
wisdom:
but
the
froward
tongue
shall
be
cut
out.
32
The
lips
of
the
righteous
know
what
is
acceptable:
but
the
mouth
of
the
wicked
speaketh
frowardness.
