1 Сы́нъ премꙋ́дръ весели́тъ ѻ҆тца̀, сы́нъ же безꙋ́менъ печа́ль ма́тери.
1 The proverbs of Solomon. A wise son makes a glad father; but a foolish son brings grief to his mother.
2 Не по́льзꙋютъ сокрѡ́вища беззако́нныхъ, пра́вда же и҆зба́витъ ѿ сме́рти.
2 Treasures of wickedness profit nothing, but righteousness delivers from death.
3 Не ᲂу҆бїе́тъ гла́домъ гдⷭ҇ь дꙋ́шꙋ првⷣнꙋю, живо́тъ же нечести́выхъ низврати́тъ.
3 Yahweh will not allow the soul of the righteous to go hungry, but he thrusts away the desire of the wicked.
4 Нищета̀ мꙋ́жа смирѧ́етъ: рꙋ́цѣ же мꙋ́жественныхъ ѡ҆богаща́ютсѧ.
4 He becomes poor who works with a lazy hand, but the hand of the diligent brings wealth.
5 Сы́нъ нака́занъ премꙋ́дръ бꙋ́детъ, безꙋ́мный же слꙋго́ю ᲂу҆потреби́тсѧ: спасе́тсѧ ѿ зно́ѧ сы́нъ разꙋ́мный, вѣтротлѣ́ненъ же быва́етъ на жа́твѣ сы́нъ беззако́нный.
5 He who gathers in summer is a wise son, but he who sleeps during the harvest is a son who causes shame.
6 Блгⷭ҇ве́нїе гдⷭ҇не на главѣ̀ првⷣнагѡ: ᲂу҆ста́ же нечести́выхъ покры́етъ пла́чь безвре́менный.
6 Blessings are on the head of the righteous, but violence covers the mouth of the wicked.
7 Па́мѧть првⷣныхъ съ похвала́ми: и҆́мѧ же нечести́выхъ ᲂу҆гаса́етъ.
7 The memory of the righteous is blessed, but the name of the wicked will rot.
8 Премꙋ́дръ се́рдцемъ прїи́метъ за́пѡвѣди: непокрове́нный же ᲂу҆стна́ма ѡ҆строптѣва́ѧ запне́тсѧ.
8 The wise in heart accept commandments, but a chattering fool will fall.
9 И҆́же хо́дитъ про́стѡ, хо́дитъ надѣ́ѧсѧ: развраща́ѧ же пꙋти̑ своѧ̑, позна́нъ бꙋ́детъ.
9 He who walks blamelessly walks surely, but he who perverts his ways will be found out.
10 Намиза́ѧй ѻ҆́комъ съ ле́стїю собира́етъ мꙋжє́мъ печа̑ли: ѡ҆блича́ѧй же со дерзнове́нїемъ миротвори́тъ.
10 One who winks with the eye causes sorrow, but a chattering fool will fall.
11 И҆сто́чникъ жи́зни въ рꙋцѣ̀ првⷣнагѡ: ᲂу҆ста́ же нечести́вагѡ покры́етъ па́гꙋба.
11 The mouth of the righteous is a spring of life, but violence covers the mouth of the wicked.
12 Не́нависть воздвиза́етъ ра́спрю: всѣ́хъ же нелюбопри́тельныхъ покрыва́етъ любо́вь.
12 Hatred stirs up strife, but love covers all wrongs.
13 И҆́же ѿ ᲂу҆сте́нъ произно́ситъ премꙋ́дрость, жезло́мъ бїе́тъ мꙋ́жа безсерде́чна.
13 Wisdom is found on the lips of him who has discernment, but a rod is for the back of him who is void of understanding.
14 Премꙋ́дрїи скры́ютъ чꙋ́вство, ᲂу҆ста́ же проде́рзагѡ приближа́ютсѧ сокрꙋше́нїю.
14 Wise men lay up knowledge, but the mouth of the foolish is near ruin.
15 Стѧжа́нїе бога́тыхъ гра́дъ тве́рдъ, сокрꙋше́нїе же нечести́выхъ нищета̀.
15 The rich man’s wealth is his strong city. The destruction of the poor is their poverty.
16 Дѣла̀ првⷣныхъ живо́тъ творѧ́тъ, пло́дове же нечести́выхъ грѣхѝ.
16 The labor of the righteous leads to life. The increase of the wicked leads to sin.
17 Пꙋти̑ жи́зни храни́тъ наказа́нїе: наказа́нїемъ же не ѡ҆бличе́ный заблꙋжда́етъ.
17 He is in the way of life who heeds correction, but he who forsakes reproof leads others astray.
18 Покрыва́ютъ враждꙋ̀ ᲂу҆стнѣ̀ пра̑выѧ: и҆зносѧ́щїи же ᲂу҆кори́знꙋ безꙋ́мнѣйшїи сꙋ́ть.
18 He who hides hatred has lying lips. He who utters a slander is a fool.
19 Ѿ многосло́вїѧ не и҆збѣжи́ши грѣха̀: щадѧ́ же ᲂу҆стнѣ̀, разꙋ́менъ бꙋ́деши.
19 In the multitude of words there is no lack of disobedience, but he who restrains his lips does wisely.
20 Сребро̀ разжже́ное ѧ҆зы́къ првⷣнагѡ: се́рдце же нечести́вагѡ и҆сче́знетъ.
20 The tongue of the righteous is like choice silver. The heart of the wicked is of little worth.
21 Оу҆стнѣ̀ првⷣныхъ вѣ́дѧтъ высѡ́каѧ: безꙋ́мнїи же въ скꙋ́дости скончава́ютсѧ.
21 The lips of the righteous feed many, but the foolish die for lack of understanding.
22 Блгⷭ҇ве́нїе гдⷭ҇не на главѣ̀ првⷣнагѡ, сїѐ ѡ҆богаща́етъ, и҆ не и҆́мать приложи́тисѧ є҆мꙋ̀ печа́ль въ се́рдцы.
22 Yahweh’s blessing brings wealth, and he adds no trouble to it.
23 Смѣ́хомъ безꙋ́мный твори́тъ ѕла̑ѧ: премꙋ́дрость же мꙋ́жеви ражда́етъ ра́зꙋмъ.
23 It is a fool’s pleasure to do wickedness, but wisdom is a man of understanding’s pleasure.
24 Въ поги́бели нечести́вый ѡ҆бно́ситсѧ: жела́нїе же првⷣнагѡ прїѧ́тно.
24 What the wicked fear will overtake them, but the desire of the righteous will be granted.
25 Преходѧ́щей бꙋ́ри, нечести́вый и҆счеза́етъ, првⷣный же ᲂу҆клони́всѧ спаса́етсѧ во вѣ́ки.
25 When the whirlwind passes, the wicked is no more; but the righteous stand firm forever.
26 Ꙗ҆́коже гро́здїе зеле́ное вре́дъ зꙋбѡ́мъ и҆ ды́мъ ѻ҆чи́ма, та́кѡ законопрестꙋпле́нїе творѧ́щымъ є҆̀.
26 As vinegar to the teeth, and as smoke to the eyes, so is the sluggard to those who send him.
27 Стра́хъ гдⷭ҇ень прилага́етъ дни̑: лѣ̑та же нечести́выхъ ᲂу҆ма́лѧтсѧ.
27 The fear of Yahweh prolongs days, but the years of the wicked shall be shortened.
28 Пребыва́етъ съ првⷣными весе́лїе, ᲂу҆пова́нїе же нечести́выхъ погиба́етъ.
28 The prospect of the righteous is joy, but the hope of the wicked will perish.
29 Оу҆твержде́нїе прпⷣбномꙋ стра́хъ гдⷭ҇ень, сокрꙋше́нїе же творѧ́щымъ ѕла̑ѧ.
29 The way of Yahweh is a stronghold to the upright, but it is a destruction to the workers of iniquity.
30 Првⷣникъ во вѣ́ки не поколе́блетсѧ: нечести́вїи же не населѧ́тъ землѝ.
30 The righteous will never be removed, but the wicked will not dwell in the land.
31 Оу҆ста̀ првⷣнагѡ ка́плютъ премꙋ́дрость, ѧ҆зы́къ же непра́веднагѡ поги́бнетъ:
31 The mouth of the righteous produces wisdom, but the perverse tongue will be cut off.
32 ᲂу҆стнѣ̀ мꙋже́й првⷣныхъ ка́плютъ бл҃года̑ти, ᲂу҆ста́ же нечести́выхъ развраща́ютсѧ.
32 The lips of the righteous know what is acceptable, but the mouth of the wicked is perverse.

What the Fathers said

Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).

How these were chosen

“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).

  1. Quotes verse 10:10 Augustine of Hippo, Sermons on Selected Lessons of the New Testament (Sermon XXXII)

    But since this is so, what is that which Solomon says, and which we heard first to-day out of another lesson, "He that winketh with the eyes deceitfully, heapeth sorrow upon men; but he that reproveth openly, maketh peace"? If then "he that reproveth openly, maketh peace;" how "rebuke him between him and thee alone"?

  2. Quotes verse 10:26 Augustine of Hippo, Expositions on the Psalms (The Second Part)

    It is not I that say: hear the Scripture: "As a sour grape is vexation to the teeth, and smoke to the eyes, so is unrighteousness to them that use it." For he that shall have eaten unrighteousness, that is, he that shall have had unrighteousness wilfully, shall not be able to eat righteousness.
