3 The folly of a man spoils his ways: And he blames God in his heart. 4 Wealth acquires many friends; But the poor is deserted even of the friend he has. 5 A false witness shall not be unpunished, And he that accuses unjustly shall not escape. 6 Many court the favor of kings; But every bad man becomes a reproach to [another] man. 7 Every one who hates [his] poor brother Shall also be far from friendship. Good understanding will draw near to them that know it, And a sensible man will find it. He that does much harm perfects mischief; And he that uses provoking words shall not escape. 8 He that procures wisdom loves himself; And he that keeps wisdom shall find good. 9 A false witness shall not be unpunished; And whosoever shall kindle mischief shall perish by it. 10 Delight does not suit a fool, Nor [is it seemly] if a servant should begin to rule with haughtiness. 11 A merciful man is long-suffering; And his triumph overtakes transgressors. 12 The threatening of a king is like the roaring of a lion; But as dew on the grass, so is his favor. 13 A foolish son is a disgrace to his father: Vows [paid out] of the hire of a harlot are not pure. 14 Fathers divide house and substance to [their] children: But a wife is suited to a man by the Lord. 15 Cowardice possesses the effeminate [man]; And the soul of the sluggard shall hunger. 16 He that keeps the commandment keeps his own soul; But he that despises his ways shall perish. 17 He that has pity on the poor lends to the Lord; And he will recompense to him according to his gift. 18 Chasten thy son, for so he shall be hopeful; And be not exalted in thy soul to haughtiness. 19 A malicious man shall be severely punished, And if he commit injury, he shall also lose his life. 20 Hear, son, the instruction of thy father, That thou mayest be wise at thy latter end. 21 [There are] many thoughts in a man’s heart; But the counsel of the Lord abides forever. 22 Mercy is a fruit to a man: And a poor man is better than a rich liar. 23 The fear of the Lord is life to a man: And he shall lodge without fear in places where knowledge is not seen. 24 He that unjustly hides his hands in his bosom, Will not even [bring] them up to his mouth. 25 When a pestilent character is scourged, a simple man is made wiser: And if thou reprove a wise man, he will understand discretion. 26 He that dishonors his father, and drives away his mother, Shall be disgraced and shall be exposed to reproach. 27 A son who ceases to attend to the instruction of a father Will cherish evil designs. 28 He that becomes surety for a foolish child will despise the ordinance: And the mouth of ungodly men shall drink down judgments. 29 Scourges are preparing for the intemperate, And punishments likewise for fools.

Lo que dijeron los Padres
Pasajes de los Padres de la Iglesia que comentan o citan este capítulo, tal como aparecen en la edición de Schaff (traducciones inglesas del siglo XIX, de dominio público). Los textos están en inglés.
Cómo se eligieron
«Comentario» es el comienzo de una homilía o exposición sobre este capítulo (homilías de san Juan Crisóstomo; tratados, sermones y comentarios a los Salmos de san Agustín). «Cita» es una frase en la que las notas de la propia edición identifican la cita de un versículo de este capítulo; solo se conserva si el texto coincide con el versículo. Solo se usan obras de autoría segura. Los Salmos siguen la numeración hebrea (Agustín usa la de los Setenta: su Salmo 50 es aquí el 51).
For even as God does not need our possessions, so do we need to offer something to God; as Solomon says: "He that hath pity upon the poor, lendeth unto the Lord." For God, who stands in need of nothing, takes our good works to Himself for this purpose, that He may grant us a recompense of His own good …
He Himself hath said, "He that hath pity upon the poor lendeth to God." Thou hast lent to God: put it to His account.

For "he that showeth mercy to a poor man," it is said, "lendeth to the Lord." He gave thee also an earnest, and bail, and this being God!
