¹ A Psalm of David. O Jehovah, who shall dwell in Your tabernacle? Who shall live in Your holy mountain? ² He who walks uprightly and works righteousness, and speaks the truth in his heart. ³ He does not backbite with his tongue, nor do evil to his friend, nor lift up a reproach against his neighbor. ⁴ In his eyes, the reprobate has been despised, but he honors those who fear Jehovah: He has sworn to his hurt, and will not change it. ⁵ He has not given his silver at interest; nor has he taken a bribe against the innocent; he who does these things shall not be shaken forever.

¹ The Proverbs of Solomon, son of David, king of Israel: ² To know wisdom and instruction; to understand the words of understanding; ³ to receive instruction in prudence, justice, and judgment, and uprightness; ⁴ to give sense to the simple, knowledge and discretion to the young man. ⁵ The wise hears and increases learning, and the understanding ones gets wise counsel, ⁶ to understand a proverb and an enigma; the words of the wise, and their acute sayings. ⁷ The fear of Jehovah is the beginning of knowledge; fools despise wisdom and instruction. ⁸ My son, hear your father's instruction, and do not forsake the teaching of your mother; ⁹ for they shall be an ornament of grace to your head, and chains for your neck. ¹⁰ My son, if sinners lure you, do not be willing. ¹¹ If they say, Walk with us, let us lie in wait for blood, let us secretly lurk for the innocent without cause, ¹² let us swallow them up alive as Sheol; and whole, as those who go down into the Pit, ¹³ we shall find all precious goods; we shall fill our houses with plunder; ¹⁴ cast in your lot among us; one purse shall be to all of us. ¹⁵ My son, do not walk in the way with them! Hold back your foot from their path; ¹⁶ for their feet run to evil and they haste to shed blood. ¹⁷ For in vain the net is spread in the sight of every bird. ¹⁸ And they lie in wait for their own blood; they lurk secretly for their own souls. ¹⁹ So are the ways of everyone who gets unjust gain; it takes away its owner's soul. ²⁰ Wisdom cries aloud outside; she gives her voice in the square; ²¹ she calls at the head of gathering places; in the opening of the gates, in the city she utters her words: ²² How long will you love to be simple, you simple ones? And will scorners desire scorn for themselves? And will fools hate knowledge? ²³ Turn back at my warning; behold, I will pour out my Spirit to you; I will make my words known to you. ²⁴ Because I called, and you refused; I stretch out a hand, and none inclines, ²⁵ but you have ignored all my counsel, and you did not desire my warning. ²⁶ I also will laugh in your calamity, I will mock when your dread comes; ²⁷ when your dread comes like a storm; and your calamity arrives like a tempest, when distress and constraint come on you. ²⁸ Then they shall call on me, and I will not answer; they shall seek me early, but they shall not find me. ²⁹ Instead they hated knowledge and chose not the fear of Jehovah. ³⁰ They did not want my counsel; they despised all my reproof, ³¹ and they shall eat of the fruit of their own way and be filled with their own lusts. ³² For the going astray of the simple kills them, and the ease of fools destroys them. ³³ But he who listens to me shall live securely and shall be at ease from the dread of evil.
