Book 28 : KETUVIM - PROVERBS - Chapter 018
18:001
He that separateth himself seeketh his own desire, and
snarlest against all sound wisdom
18:002
A fool hath no delight in understanding, but only that his
heart may lay itself bare
18:003
When the wicked cometh, there cometh also contempt, and
with ignominy reproach
18:004
The words of a man's mouth are as deep waters; a flowing
brook, a fountain of wisdom
18:005
It is not good to respect the person of the wicked, so as
to turn aside the righteous in judgment
18:006
A fool's lips enter into contention, and his mouth calleth
for strokes
18:007
A fool's mouth is his ruin, and his lips are the snare of
his soul
18:008
The words of a whisperer are as dainty morsels, and they go
down into the innermost parts of the belly
18:009
Even one that is slack in his work is brother to him that
is a destroyer
18:010
The name of HaShem is a strong tower: the righteous
runneth into it, and is set up on high
18:011
The rich man's wealth is his strong city, and as a high
wall in his own conceit
18:012
Before destruction the heart of a man is haughty, and
before honour goeth humility
18:013
He that giveth answer before he heareth, it is folly and
confusion unto him
18:014
The spirit of a man will sustain his infirmity; but a
broken spirit who can bear
18:015
The heart of the prudent getteth knowledge; and the ear of
the wise seeketh knowledge
18:016
A man's gift maketh room for him, and bringeth him before
great men
18:017
He that pleadeth his cause first seemeth just; but his
neighbour cometh and searcheth him out
18:018
The lot causeth strife to cease, and parteth asunder the
contentious
18:019
A brother offended is harder to be won than a strong city;
and their contentions are like the bars of a castle
18:020
A man's belly shall be filled with the fruit of his mouth;
with the increase of his lips shall he be satisfied
18:021
Death and life are in the power of the tongue; and they
that indulge it shall eat the fruit thereof
18:022
Whoso findeth a wife findeth a great good, and obtaineth
favour of HaShem
18:023
The poor useth entreaties; but the rich answereth
impudently
18:024
There are friends that one hath to his own hurt; but there
is a friend that sticketh closer than a brother
