WEB World English Bible (Classic, with Deuterocanon)

1 Ni la nieve es para el verano, ni la lluvia para la cosecha, ni los honores para el necio.

1 Like snow in summer, and as rain in harvest, so honor is not fitting for a fool.

2 Como gorrión que vuela sin rumbo o la golondrina sin nido, la maldición sin motivo jamás llega a destino.

2 Like a fluttering sparrow, like a darting swallow, so the undeserved curse doesn’t come to rest.

3 El látigo es para el caballo, el freno para el burro y la vara, para la espalda del necio.

3 A whip is for the horse, a bridle for the donkey, and a rod for the back of fools!

4 No respondas al necio según su necedad, o tú mismo pasarás por necio.

4 Don’t answer a fool according to his folly, lest you also be like him.

5 Respóndele al necio como se merece, para que no se crea sabio.

5 Answer a fool according to his folly, lest he be wise in his own eyes.

6 Confiar que el necio lleve un mensaje es como cortarse los pies o sufrir violencia.

6 One who sends a message by the hand of a fool is cutting off feet and drinking violence.

7 Inútil es el proverbio en la boca del necio como inútiles son las piernas de un inválido.

7 Like the legs of the lame that hang loose, so is a parable in the mouth of fools.

8 Honrar al necio es tan descabellado como atar una piedra a la honda.

8 As one who binds a stone in a sling, so is he who gives honor to a fool.

9 El proverbio en la boca del necio es como la espina en la mano del borracho.

9 Like a thorn bush that goes into the hand of a drunkard, so is a parable in the mouth of fools.

10 Como el arquero que hiere a todo el que pasa, así es el que da trabajo al necio en su casa.

10 As an archer who wounds all, so is he who hires a fool or he who hires those who pass by.

11 Como el perro vuelve a su vómito, así el necio vuelve a su necedad.

11 As a dog that returns to his vomit, so is a fool who repeats his folly.

12 Hay más esperanza para un necio que para el que se cree muy sabio.

12 Do you see a man wise in his own eyes? There is more hope for a fool than for him.

13 El perezoso para no trabajar pone excusas, dice: «Hay un león allá afuera que anda suelto».

13 The sluggard says, “There is a lion in the road! A fierce lion roams the streets!”

14 Sobre sus bisagras gira la puerta; sobre la cama, el perezoso.

14 As the door turns on its hinges, so does the sluggard on his bed.

15 El perezoso no mueve ni un dedo para llevarse la comida a la boca.

15 The sluggard buries his hand in the dish. He is too lazy to bring it back to his mouth.

16 El perezoso se cree más listo que siete sabios que saben responder.

16 The sluggard is wiser in his own eyes than seven men who answer with discretion.

17 Meterse en pleitos ajenos es como agarrar a un perro por las orejas.

17 Like one who grabs a dog’s ears is one who passes by and meddles in a quarrel not his own.

18 Como loco que lanza flechas encendidas,

18 Like a madman who shoots torches, arrows, and death,

19 es el que engaña a su prójimo y luego dice: «Sólo era una broma».

19 is the man who deceives his neighbor and says, “Am I not joking?”

20 Sin leña se apaga el fuego, y sin chismes se acaba el pleito.

20 For lack of wood a fire goes out. Without gossip, a quarrel dies down.

21 El carbón es para hacer brasas, la leña para hacer fuego, y el hombre pendenciero para empezar pleitos.

21 As coals are to hot embers, and wood to fire, so is a contentious man to kindling strife.

22 Los chismes son como bocados sabrosos; llegan hasta lo más profundo del corazón.

22 The words of a whisperer are as dainty morsels, they go down into the innermost parts.

23 Como baño de plata sobre olla de barro así son las palabras amables que ocultan un corazón malvado.

23 Like silver dross on an earthen vessel are the lips of a fervent one with an evil heart.

24 El que odia lo disimula al hablar, pero en su corazón hace planes malvados.

24 A malicious man disguises himself with his lips, but he harbors evil in his heart.

25 No le creas, aunque te hable con dulzura, porque su corazón rebosa de abominaciones.

25 When his speech is charming, don’t believe him, for there are seven abominations in his heart.

26 Puede engañarnos disimulando su odio pero ante todos se descubrirá su maldad.

26 His malice may be concealed by deception, but his wickedness will be exposed in the assembly.

27 El que cava una fosa, en ella caerá; el que echa a rodar una roca, contra él se volverá.

27 Whoever digs a pit shall fall into it. Whoever rolls a stone, it will come back on him.

28 La lengua mentirosa odia a sus víctimas, la boca aduladora causa la ruina.

28 A lying tongue hates those it hurts; and a flattering mouth works ruin.
