절	Good News Translation (1992)	King James Version
1	People who do not get along with others are interested only in themselves; they will disagree with what everyone else knows is right.	Through desire a man, having separated himself, seeketh and intermeddleth with all wisdom.
2	A fool does not care whether he understands a thing or not; all he wants to do is show how smart he is.	A fool hath no delight in understanding, but that his heart may discover itself.
3	Sin and shame go together. Lose your honor, and you will get scorn in its place.	When the wicked cometh, then cometh also contempt, and with ignominy reproach.
4	A person's words can be a source of wisdom, deep as the ocean, fresh as a flowing stream.	The words of a man’s mouth are as deep waters, and the wellspring of wisdom as a flowing brook.
5	It is not right to favor the guilty and keep the innocent from receiving justice.	It is not good to accept the person of the wicked, to overthrow the righteous in judgment.
6	When some fool starts an argument, he is asking for a beating.	A fool’s lips enter into contention, and his mouth calleth for strokes.
7	When a fool speaks, he is ruining himself; he gets caught in the trap of his own words.	A fool’s mouth is his destruction, and his lips are the snare of his soul.
8	Gossip is so tasty—how we love to swallow it!	The words of a talebearer are as wounds, and they go down into the innermost parts of the belly.
9	A lazy person is as bad as someone who is destructive.	He also that is slothful in his work is brother to him that is a great waster.
10	The Lord is like a strong tower, where the righteous can go and be safe.	The name of the Lord is a strong tower: the righteous runneth into it, and is safe.
11	Rich people, however, imagine that their wealth protects them like high, strong walls around a city.	The rich man’s wealth is his strong city, and as an high wall in his own conceit.
12	No one is respected unless he is humble; arrogant people are on the way to ruin.	Before destruction the heart of man is haughty, and before honour is humility.
13	Listen before you answer. If you don't, you are being stupid and insulting.	He that answereth a matter before he heareth it, it is folly and shame unto him.
14	Your will to live can sustain you when you are sick, but if you lose it, your last hope is gone.	The spirit of a man will sustain his infirmity; but a wounded spirit who can bear?
15	Intelligent people are always eager and ready to learn.	The heart of the prudent getteth knowledge; and the ear of the wise seeketh knowledge.
16	Do you want to meet an important person? Take a gift and it will be easy.	A man’s gift maketh room for him, and bringeth him before great men.
17	The first person to speak in court always seems right until his opponent begins to question him.	He that is first in his own cause seemeth just; but his neighbour cometh and searcheth him.
18	If two powerful people are opposing each other in court, casting lots can settle the issue.	The lot causeth contentions to cease, and parteth between the mighty.
19	Help your relatives and they will protect you like a strong city wall, but if you quarrel with them, they will close their doors to you.	A brother offended is harder to be won than a strong city: and their contentions are like the bars of a castle.
20	You will have to live with the consequences of everything you say.	A man’s belly shall be satisfied with the fruit of his mouth; and with the increase of his lips shall he be filled.
21	What you say can preserve life or destroy it; so you must accept the consequences of your words.	Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof.
22	Find a wife and you find a good thing; it shows that the Lord is good to you.	Whoso findeth a wife findeth a good thing, and obtaineth favour of the Lord.
23	When the poor speak, they have to be polite, but when the rich answer, they are rude.	The poor useth intreaties; but the rich answereth roughly.
24	Some friendships do not last, but some friends are more loyal than brothers.	A man that hath friends must shew himself friendly: and there is a friend that sticketh closer than a brother.
