Proverbs 10 A wise son makes his father glad, but a foolish son is a grief to his mother.

CAB⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ A wise son makes his father glad, but a foolish son is a grief to his mother. ² Treasures shall not profit the lawless, but righteousness shall deliver from death. ³ The Lord will not famish a righteous soul, but He will overthrow the life of the ungodly. ⁴ Poverty brings a man low, but the hands of the vigorous make rich. ^(10:4A) A son who is instructed shall be wise, and shall use the fool for a servant. ⁵ A wise son is saved from heat, but a lawless son is blighted of the winds in harvest. ⁶ The blessing of the Lord is upon the head of the just, but untimely grief shall cover the mouth of the ungodly. ⁷ The memory of the just is praised, but the name of the ungodly man is extinguished. ⁸ A wise man in heart will receive commandments, but he that is unguarded in his lips shall be overthrown in his perverseness. ⁹ He that walks simply, walks confidently, but he that perverts his ways shall be known. ¹⁰ He that winks with his eyes deceitfully procures griefs for men, but he that reproves boldly is a peacemaker. ¹¹ There is a fountain of life in the hand of a righteous man, but destruction shall cover the mouth of the ungodly. ¹² Hatred stirs up strife, but affection covers all that do not love strife. ¹³ He that brings forth wisdom from his lips smites the fool with a rod. ¹⁴ The wise will hide discretion, but the mouth of the hasty draws near to ruin. ¹⁵ The wealth of rich men is a strong city, but poverty is the ruin of the ungodly. ¹⁶ The works of the righteous produce life, but the fruits of the ungodly produce sins. ¹⁷ Instruction keeps the right ways of life, but instruction unchastened goes astray. ¹⁸ Righteous lips cover enmity, but they that utter railings are most foolish. ¹⁹ By a multitude of words you shall not escape sin, but if you refrain your lips you will be prudent. ²⁰ The tongue of the just is choice silver, but the heart of the ungodly shall fail. ²¹ The lips of the righteous know sublime truths, but the foolish die in want. ²² The blessing of the Lord is upon the head of the righteous; it enriches him, and grief of heart shall not be added to it. ²³ A fool does mischief in sport, but wisdom brings forth prudence for a man. ²⁴ The ungodly is engulfed in destruction, but the desire of the righteous is acceptable. ²⁵ When the storm passes by, the ungodly vanishes away; but the righteous turns aside and escapes forever. ²⁶ As a sour grape is hurtful to the teeth, and smoke to the eyes, so iniquity hurts those that practice it. ²⁷ The fear of the Lord adds length of days, but the years of the ungodly shall be shortened. ²⁸ Joy rests long with the righteous, but the hope of the ungodly shall perish. ²⁹ The fear of the Lord is a stronghold of the saints, but ruin comes to them that work wickedness. ³⁰ The righteous shall never fail, but the ungodly shall not dwell in the earth. ³¹ The mouth of the righteous drops wisdom, but the tongue of the unjust shall perish. ³² The lips of just men drop grace, but the mouth of the ungodly is perverse.
