Proverbs
24
1 Do not envy the wicked or desire their company, 2 for their hearts dream only of violence and their lips speak nothing but evil.
3 With wisdom a house is built. 4 It is strengthened by prudence. Its granaries are filled by knowledge with all that is good, precious and desirable.
5 The wise man is powerful
7 Wisdom is beyond the reach of the fool
8 The plotter of evil is called an un scrupulous mastermind.
9 The fool dreams only of sin, the mocker deserves only contempt.
10 If you lose heart when misfortune comes, miserable is your strength.
11 Rescue those who are being carried away to die
13 Eat honey, my son, because it is good
15 Evildoer, do not spy on the house of the virtuous man, do not disturb his home. 16 Because even though the virtuous man falls seven times, he gets up again, while the wicked sink in their adversity.
17 Do not rejoice if your enemy falls or let your heart be glad if he stumbles, 18 lest Yahweh see and be displeased and his anger be turned on you.
19 Do not be incensed by the wicked or envious of the ungodly, 20 since there is no future in evil and the lamp of the wicked will be extinguished.
21 Fear Yahweh and the king, my son

27 Finish your work out-of-doors and plan your work in the fields

29 Do not say, I will do to him what he did to me
30 I passed by the lazy mans field, near the vineyard of the senseless man. 31 Everywhere it was full of weeds
