1 [Sapiens mulier ædificat domum suam; insipiens exstructam quoque manibus destruet. 2 Ambulans recto itinere, et timens Deum, despicitur ab eo qui infami graditur via. 3 In ore stulti virga superbiæ; labia autem sapientium custodiunt eos. 4 Ubi non sunt boves, præsepe vacuum est; ubi autem plurimæ segetes, ibi manifesta est fortitudo bovis. 5 Testis fidelis non mentitur; profert autem mendacium dolosus testis. 6 Quærit derisor sapientiam, et non invenit; doctrina prudentium facilis. 7 Vade contra virum stultum, et nescit labia prudentiæ. 8 Sapientia callidi est intelligere viam suam, et imprudentia stultorum errans. 9 Stultus illudet peccatum, et inter justos morabitur gratia. 10 Cor quod novit amaritudinem animæ suæ, in gaudio ejus non miscebitur extraneus. 11 Domus impiorum delebitur: tabernacula vero justorum germinabunt. 12 Est via quæ videtur homini justa, novissima autem ejus deducunt ad mortem. 13 Risus dolore miscebitur, et extrema gaudii luctus occupat. 14 Viis suis replebitur stultus, et super eum erit vir bonus.] 15 [Innocens credit omni verbo; astutus considerat gressus suos. Filio doloso nihil erit boni; servo autem sapienti prosperi erunt actus, et dirigetur via ejus. 16 Sapiens timet, et declinat a malo; stultus transilit, et confidit. 17 Impatiens operabitur stultitiam, et vir versutus odiosus est. 18 Possidebunt parvuli stultitiam, et exspectabunt astuti scientiam. 19 Jacebunt mali ante bonos, et impii ante portas justorum. 20 Etiam proximo suo pauper odiosus erit: amici vero divitum multi. 21 Qui despicit proximum suum peccat; qui autem miseretur pauperis beatus erit. Qui credit in Domino misericordiam diligit. 22 Errant qui operantur malum; misericordia et veritas præparant bona. 23 In omni opere erit abundantia; ubi autem verba sunt plurima, ibi frequenter egestas. 24 Corona sapientium divitiæ eorum; fatuitas stultorum imprudentia. 25 Liberat animas testis fidelis, et profert mendacia versipellis.] 26 [In timore Domini fiducia fortitudinis, et filiis ejus erit spes. 27 Timor Domini fons vitæ, ut declinent a ruina mortis. 28 In multitudine populi dignitas regis, et in paucitate plebis ignominia principis. 29 Qui patiens est multa gubernatur prudentia; qui autem impatiens est exaltat stultitiam suam. 30 Vita carnium sanitas cordis; putredo ossium invidia. 31 Qui calumniatur egentem exprobrat factori ejus; honorat autem eum qui miseretur pauperis. 32 In malitia sua expelletur impius: sperat autem justus in morte sua. 33 In corde prudentis requiescit sapientia, et indoctos quosque erudiet. 34 Justitia elevat gentem; miseros autem facit populos peccatum. 35 Acceptus est regi minister intelligens; iracundiam ejus inutilis sustinebit.]

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 14:28 Augustine of Hippo, Expositions on the Psalms (Psalm LXXXVI)

    The Scripture says, "In a wide nation is the king's honour; but in the domination of the people is the affliction of a prince." This wrong then thou dost unto Christ, to say that His people is diminished to that small number.
