Proverbia 13
Biblia Sacra Vulgata
13 Filius sapiens doctrina patris; qui autem illusor est non audit cum arguitur.
2 De fructu oris sui homo satiabitur bonis: anima autem praevaricatorum iniqua.
3 Qui custodit os suum custodit animam suam; qui autem inconsideratus est ad loquendum, sentiet mala.
4 Vult et non vult piger; anima autem operantium impinguabitur.
5 Verbum mendax justus detestabitur; impius autem confundit, et confundetur.
6 Justitia custodit innocentis viam, impietas autem peccatorem supplantat.
7 Est quasi dives, cum nihil habeat, et est quasi pauper, cum in multis divitiis sit.
8 Redemptio animae viri divitiae suae; qui autem pauper est, increpationem non sustinet.
9 Lux justorum laetificat: lucerna autem impiorum extinguetur.
10 Inter superbos semper jurgia sunt; qui autem agunt omnia cum consilio, reguntur sapientia.
11 Substantia festinata minuetur; quae autem paulatim colligitur manu, multiplicabitur.
12 Spes quae differtur affligit animam; lignum vitae desiderium veniens.
13 Qui detrahit alicui rei, ipse se in futurum obligat; qui autem timet praeceptum, in pace versabitur. Animae dolosae errant in peccatis: justi autem misericordes sunt, et miserantur.
14 Lex sapientis fons vitae, ut declinet a ruina mortis.
15 Doctrina bona dabit gratiam; in itinere contemptorum vorago.
16 Astutus omnia agit cum consilio; qui autem fatuus est aperit stultitiam.
17 Nuntius impii cadet in malum; legatus autem fidelis, sanitas.
18 Egestas et ignominia ei qui deserit disciplinam; qui autem acquiescit arguenti glorificabitur.
19 Desiderium si compleatur delectat animam; detestantur stulti eos qui fugiunt mala.
20 Qui cum sapientibus graditur sapiens erit; amicus stultorum similis efficietur.
21 Peccatores persequitur malum, et justis retribuentur bona.
22 Bonus reliquit haeredes filios et nepotes, et custoditur justo substantia peccatoris.
23 Multi cibi in novalibus patrum, et aliis congregantur absque judicio.
24 Qui parcit virgae odit filium suum; qui autem diligit illum instanter erudit.
25 Justus comedit et replet animam suam; venter autem impiorum insaturabilis.
Proverbs 13
New International Version
13 A wise son heeds his father’s instruction,
but a mocker does not respond to rebukes.(A)
2 From the fruit of their lips people enjoy good things,(B)
but the unfaithful have an appetite for violence.
3 Those who guard their lips(C) preserve their lives,(D)
but those who speak rashly will come to ruin.(E)
4 A sluggard’s appetite is never filled,(F)
but the desires of the diligent are fully satisfied.
5 The righteous hate what is false,(G)
but the wicked make themselves a stench
and bring shame on themselves.
6 Righteousness guards the person of integrity,
but wickedness overthrows the sinner.(H)
7 One person pretends to be rich, yet has nothing;(I)
another pretends to be poor, yet has great wealth.(J)
8 A person’s riches may ransom their life,
but the poor cannot respond to threatening rebukes.(K)
9 The light of the righteous shines brightly,
but the lamp of the wicked is snuffed out.(L)
10 Where there is strife, there is pride,
but wisdom is found in those who take advice.(M)
11 Dishonest money dwindles away,(N)
but whoever gathers money little by little makes it grow.
12 Hope deferred makes the heart sick,
but a longing fulfilled is a tree of life.(O)
15 Good judgment wins favor,
but the way of the unfaithful leads to their destruction.[a]
18 Whoever disregards discipline comes to poverty and shame,(Y)
but whoever heeds correction is honored.(Z)
19 A longing fulfilled is sweet to the soul,(AA)
but fools detest turning from evil.
20 Walk with the wise and become wise,
for a companion of fools suffers harm.(AB)
22 A good person leaves an inheritance for their children’s children,
but a sinner’s wealth is stored up for the righteous.(AF)
23 An unplowed field produces food for the poor,
but injustice sweeps it away.
24 Whoever spares the rod(AG) hates their children,
but the one who loves their children is careful to discipline(AH) them.(AI)
25 The righteous eat to their hearts’ content,
but the stomach of the wicked goes hungry.(AJ)
