Reina-Valera 1909
1He that loveth correction, loveth knowledge: but he that hateth reproof is foolish.
1EL que ama la corrección ama la sabiduría: mas el que aborrece la reprensión, es ignorante.
2He that is good, shall draw grace from the Lord: but he that trusteth in his own devices doth wickedly.
2El bueno alcanzará favor de Jehová: mas él condenará al hombre de malos pensamientos.
3Men shall not be strengthened by wickedness: and the root of the just shall not be moved.
3El hombre no se afirmará por medio de la impiedad: mas la raíz de los justos no será movida.
4A diligent woman is a crown to her husband: and she that doth things worthy of confusion, is a rottenness in his bones.
4La mujer virtuosa corona es de su marido: mas la mala, como carcoma en sus huesos.
5The thoughts of the just are judgments: and the counsels of the wicked are deceitful.
5Los pensamientos de los justos son rectitud; mas los consejos de los impíos, engaño.
6The words of the wicked lie in wait for blood: the mouth of the just shall deliver them.
6Las palabras de los impíos son para acechar la sangre: mas la boca de los rectos los librará.
7Turn the wicked, and they shall not be: but the house of the just shall stand firm.
7Dios trastornará á los impíos, y no serán más: mas la casa de los justos permanecerá.
8A man shall be known by his learning: but he that is vain and foolish, shall be exposed to contempt.
8Según su sabiduría es alabado el hombre: mas el perverso de corazón será en menosprecio.
9Better is the poor man that provideth for himself, than he that is glorious and wanteth bread.
9Mejor es el que es menospreciado y tiene servidores, que el que se precia, y carece de pan.
10The just regardeth the lives of his beasts: but the bowels of the wicked are cruel.
10El justo atiende á la vida de su bestia: mas las entrañas de los impíos son crueles.
11He that tilleth his land shall be satisfied with bread: but he that pursueth idleness is very foolish. He that is delighted in passing his time over wine, leaveth a reproach in his strong holds.
11El que labra su tierra, se hartará de pan: mas el que sigue los vagabundos es falto de entendimiento.
12The desire of the wicked is the fortification of evil men: but the root of the just shall prosper.
12Desea el impío la red de los malos: mas la raíz de los justos dará fruto .
13For the sins of the lips ruin draweth nigh to the evil mall: but the just shall escape out of distress.
13El impío es enredado en la prevaricación de sus labios: mas el justo saldrá de la tribulación.
14By the fruit of his own mouth shall a man be filled with good things, and according to the works of his hands it shall be repaid him.
14El hombre será harto de bien del fruto de su boca: y la paga de las manos del hombre le será dada.
15The way of a fool is right in his own eyes: but he that is wise hearkeneth unto counsels.
15El camino del necio es derecho en su opinión: mas el que obedece al consejo es sabio.
16A fool immediately sheweth his anger: but he that dissembleth injuries is wise.
16El necio luego al punto da á conocer su ira: mas el que disimula la injuria es cuerdo.
17He that speaketh that which he knoweth, sheweth forth justice: but he that lieth, is a deceitful witness.
17El que habla verdad, declara justicia; mas el testigo mentiroso, engaño.
18There is that promiseth, and is pricked as it were with a sword of conscience: but the tongue of the wise is health.
18Hay quienes hablan como dando estocadas de espada: mas la lengua de los sabios es medicina.
19The lip of truth shall be steadfast for ever: but he that is a hasty witness, frameth a lying tongue.
19El labio de verdad permanecerá para siempre: mas la lengua de mentira por un momento.
20Deceit is in the heart of them that think evil things: but joy followeth them that take counsels of peace.
20Engaño hay en el corazón de los que piensan mal: mas alegría en el de los que piensan bien.
21Whatsoever shall befall the just man. it shall not make him sad: but the wicked shall be filled with mischief.
21Ninguna adversidad acontecerá al justo: mas los impíos serán llenos de mal.
22Lying lips are an abomination to the Lord: but they that deal faithfully please him.
22Los labios mentirosos son abominación á Jehová: mas los obradores de verdad su contentamiento.
23A cautious man concealeth knowledge: and the heart of fools publisheth folly.
23El hombre cuerdo encubre la ciencia: mas el corazón de los necios publica la necedad.
24The hand of the valiant shall bear rule: but that which is slothful, shall be under tribute.
24La mano de los diligentes se enseñoreará: mas la negligencia será tributaria.
25Grief in the heart of a man shall bring him low, but with a good word he shall be made glad.
25El cuidado congojoso en el corazón del hombre, lo abate; mas la buena palabra lo alegra.
26He that neglecteth a loss for the sake of a friend, is just: but the way of the wicked shall deceive them.
26El justo hace ventaja á su prójimo: mas el camino de los impíos les hace errar.
27The deceitful man shall not find gain: but the substance of a just man shall be precious gold.
27El indolente no chamuscará su caza: mas el haber precioso del hombre es la diligencia.
28In the path of justice is life: but the by-way leadeth to death.
28En el camino de la justicia está la vida; y la senda de su vereda no es muerte.
