절	Contemporary English Version (2006)	King James Version
1	Words of Wisdom Are Better than Gold It isn't smart to get drunk! Drinking makes a fool of you and leads to fights.	Wine is a mocker, strong drink is raging: and whosoever is deceived thereby is not wise.
2	An angry ruler is like a roaring lion— make either one angry, and you are dead.	The fear of a king is as the roaring of a lion: whoso provoketh him to anger sinneth against his own soul.
3	It makes you look good when you avoid a fight— only fools love to quarrel.	It is an honour for a man to cease from strife: but every fool will be meddling.
4	If you are too lazy to plow, don't expect a harvest.	The sluggard will not plow by reason of the cold; therefore shall he beg in harvest, and have nothing.
5	Someone's thoughts may be as deep as the ocean, but if you are smart, you will discover them.	Counsel in the heart of man is like deep water; but a man of understanding will draw it out.
6	There are many who say, “You can trust me!” But can they be trusted?	Most men will proclaim every one his own goodness: but a faithful man who can find?
7	Good people live right, and God blesses the children who follow their example.	The just man walketh in his integrity: his children are blessed after him.
8	When rulers decide cases, they weigh the evidence.	A king that sitteth in the throne of judgment scattereth away all evil with his eyes.
9	Can any of us really say, “My thoughts are pure, and my sins are gone”?	Who can say, I have made my heart clean, I am pure from my sin?
10	Two things the Lord hates are dishonest scales and dishonest measures.	Divers weights, and divers measures, both of them are alike abomination to the Lord.
11	The good or bad that children do shows what they are like.	Even a child is known by his doings, whether his work be pure, and whether it be right.
12	Hearing and seeing are gifts from the Lord.	The hearing ear, and the seeing eye, the Lord hath made even both of them.
13	If you sleep all the time, you will starve; if you get up and work, you will have enough food.	Love not sleep, lest thou come to poverty; open thine eyes, and thou shalt be satisfied with bread.
14	Everyone likes to brag about getting a bargain.	It is naught, it is naught, saith the buyer: but when he is gone his way, then he boasteth.
15	Sensible words are better than gold or jewels.	There is gold, and a multitude of rubies: but the lips of knowledge are a precious jewel.
16	You deserve to lose your coat if you loan it to someone to guarantee payment for the debt of a stranger.	Take his garment that is surety for a stranger: and take a pledge of him for a strange woman.
17	The food you get by cheating may taste delicious, but it turns to gravel.	Bread of deceit is sweet to a man; but afterwards his mouth shall be filled with gravel.
18	Be sure you have sound advice before making plans or starting a war.	Every purpose is established by counsel: and with good advice make war.
19	Stay away from gossips— they tell everything.	He that goeth about as a talebearer revealeth secrets: therefore meddle not with him that flattereth with his lips.
20	Children who curse their parents will go to the land of darkness long before their time.	Whoso curseth his father or his mother, his lamp shall be put out in obscure darkness.
21	Getting rich quick may turn out to be a curse.	An inheritance may be gotten hastily at the beginning; but the end thereof shall not be blessed.
22	Don't try to get even. Trust the Lord, and he will help you.	Say not thou, I will recompense evil; but wait on the Lord, and he shall save thee.
23	The Lord hates dishonest scales and dishonest weights. So don't cheat!	Divers weights are an abomination unto the Lord; and a false balance is not good.
24	How can we know what will happen to us when the Lord alone decides?	Man’s goings are of the Lord; how can a man then understand his own way?
25	Don't fall into the trap of making promises to God before you think!	It is a snare to the man who devoureth that which is holy, and after vows to make enquiry.
26	A wise ruler severely punishes every criminal.	A wise king scattereth the wicked, and bringeth the wheel over them.
27	Our inner thoughts are a lamp from the Lord, and they search our hearts.	The spirit of man is the candle of the Lord, searching all the inward parts of the belly.
28	Rulers are protected by God's mercy and loyalty, but they must be merciful for their kingdoms to last.	Mercy and truth preserve the king: and his throne is upholden by mercy.
29	Young people take pride in their strength, but the gray hairs of wisdom are even more beautiful.	The glory of young men is their strength: and the beauty of old men is the gray head.
30	A severe beating can knock all of the evil out of you!	The blueness of a wound cleanseth away evil: so do stripes the inward parts of the belly.
