1 Similitudes, Instructions
1 These also are proverbs of Solomon which the men of Hezekiah, king of Judah, transcribed.
2 
It is the glory of God to conceal a matter,
But the glory of kings is to search out a matter.
3 
As the heavens for height and the earth for depth,
So the heart of kings is unsearchable.
4 
Take away the dross from the silver,
And there comes out a vessel for the smith;
5 
Take away the wicked before the king,
And his throne will be established in righteousness.
6 
Do not claim honor in the presence of the king,
And do not stand in the place of great men;
7 
For it is better that it be said to you, “Come up here,”
Than for you to be placed lower in the presence of the prince,
Whom your eyes have seen.
8 
Do not go out hastily toa Lit contendargue your case;
b Lit LestOtherwise, what will you do inc Lit itsthe end,
When your neighbor humiliates you?

And do not reveal the secret of another,
10

15 
Byj Lit length of angerforbearance a ruler may be persuaded,
And a soft tongue breaks the bone.
16 
Have you found honey? Eat onlyk Lit your sufficiencywhat you need,
That you not have it in excess and vomit it.
17 
Let your foot rarely be in your neighbor’s house,
Or he will becomel Lit surfeited withweary of you and hate you.
18 
Like a club and a sword and a sharp arrow
Is a man who bears false witness against his neighbor.
19 
Like a bad tooth andm Lit a slipping footan unsteady foot
Is confidence in a faithless man in time of trouble.
20 
Like one who takes off a garment on a cold day, or like vinegar onn I.e. natronsoda,
Is he who sings songs too Lit an evila troubled heart.
21 
Ifp Lit one who hates youyour enemy is hungry, give him food to eat;
And if he is thirsty, give him water to drink;
22 
For you willq Lit snatch upheap burning coals on his head,
And the LORD will reward you.
23 
The north wind brings forth rain,
And ar Lit tongue of secrecybackbiting tongue, an angry countenance.
24 
It is better to live in a corner of the roof
Thans Lit with a woman of contentions and a house of associationin a house shared with a contentious woman.

It is not good to eat much honey,
Nor is it glory to search outu Lit theirone’s own glory.
28 
Like a city that is broken into and without walls
Is a man who has no control over his spirit.

Like snow in summer and like rain in harvest,
So honor is not fitting for a fool.
2 
Like a sparrow in itsa Lit wanderingflitting, like a swallow in its flying,
So a curse without cause does notb Lit comealight.
3 
A whip is for the horse, a bridle for the donkey,
And a rod for the back of fools.
4

Or you will also be like him.
5

The sluggard buries his hand in the dish;
He is weary of bringing it to his mouth again.
16 
The sluggard is wiser in his own eyes
Than seven men who cani Lit return discreetlygive a discreet answer.
17 
Like one who takes a dog by the ears
Is he who passes by andj Lit infuriates himselfmeddles with strife not belonging to him.
18 
Like a madman who throws
Firebrands, arrows and death,
19 
So is the man who deceives his neighbor,
And says, “Was I not joking?”
20 
For lack of wood the fire goes out,
And where there is no whisperer, contention quiets down.
21 
Like charcoal to hot embers and wood to fire,
So is a contentious man to kindle strife.
22 
The words of a whisperer are like dainty morsels,
And they go down into thek Lit chambers of the bellyinnermost parts of the body.
23 
Like an earthen vessel overlaid with silver dross
Are burning lips and a wicked heart.
24 
He who hates disguises it with his lips,
But he lays up deceit in hisl Lit inward partheart.
25
