1 The Proverbs of Solomon son of David, who reigned in Israel;

1 The proverbs of Solomon, the son of David, king of Israel:

2 to know wisdom and instruction, and to perceive words of understanding;

2 to know wisdom and instruction; to discern the words of understanding;

3 to receive also hard sayings, and to understand true justice, and [how] to direct judgment;

3 to receive instruction in wise dealing, in righteousness, justice, and equity;

4 that he might give subtlety to the simple, and to the young man discernment and understanding.

4 to give prudence to the simple, knowledge and discretion to the young man—

5 For by the hearing of these a wise man will be wiser, and the man of understanding will gain direction;

5 that the wise man may hear, and increase in learning; that the man of understanding may attain to sound counsel;

6 and will understand a parable, and a dark speech; the sayings of the wise also, and riddles.

6 to understand a proverb and parables, the words and riddles of the wise.

7 The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom; and [there is] good understanding to all that practise it: and piety toward God is the beginning of discernment; but the ungodly will set at nought wisdom and instruction.

7 The fear of Yahweh is the beginning of knowledge, but the foolish despise wisdom and instruction.

8 Hear, [my] son, the instruction of thy father, and reject not the rules of thy mother.

8 My son, listen to your father’s instruction, and don’t forsake your mother’s teaching;

9 For thou shalt receive for thine head a crown of graces, and a chain of gold round thy neck.

9 for they will be a garland to grace your head, and chains around your neck.

10 [My] son, let not ungodly men lead thee astray, neither consent thou [to them].

10 My son, if sinners entice you, don’t consent.

11 If they should exhort thee, saying, Come with us, partake in blood, and let us unjustly hide the just man in the earth:

11 If they say, “Come with us. Let’s lie in wait for blood. Let’s lurk secretly for the innocent without cause.

12 and let us swallow him alive, as Hades [would], and remove the memorial of him from the earth:

12 Let’s swallow them up alive like Sheol, and whole, like those who go down into the pit.

13 let us seize on his valuable property, and let us fill our houses with spoils:

13 We’ll find all valuable wealth. We’ll fill our houses with plunder.

14 but do thou cast in thy lot with us, and let us all provide a common purse, and let us have one pouch:

14 You shall cast your lot among us. We’ll all have one purse”—

15 go not in the way with them, but turn aside thy foot from their paths:

15 my son, don’t walk on the path with them. Keep your foot from their path, 16 for their feet run to evil. They hurry to shed blood.

17 for nets are not without cause spread for birds.

17 For the net is spread in vain in the sight of any bird;

18 For they that are concerned in murder store up evils for themselves; and the overthrow of transgressors is evil.

18 but these lay in wait for their own blood. They lurk secretly for their own lives.

19 These are the ways of all that perform lawless deeds; for by ungodliness they destroy their own life.

19 So are the ways of everyone who is greedy for gain. It takes away the life of its owners.

20 Wisdom sings aloud in passages, and in the broad places speaks boldly.

20 Wisdom calls aloud in the street. She utters her voice in the public squares.

21 And she makes proclamation on the top of the walls, and sits by the gates of princes; and at the gates of the city boldly says,

21 She calls at the head of noisy places. At the entrance of the city gates, she utters her words:

22 So long as the simple cleave to justice, they shall not be ashamed: but the foolish being lovers of haughtiness, having become ungodly have hated knowledge, and are become subject to reproofs.

22 “How long, you simple ones, will you love simplicity? How long will mockers delight themselves in mockery, and fools hate knowledge?

23 Behold, I will bring forth to you the utterance of my breath, and I will instruct you in my speech.

23 Turn at my reproof. Behold, I will pour out my spirit on you. I will make known my words to you.

24 Since I called, and ye did not hearken; and I spoke at length, and ye gave no heed;

24 Because I have called, and you have refused; I have stretched out my hand, and no one has paid attention;

25 but ye set at nought my counsels, and disregarded my reproofs;

25 but you have ignored all my counsel, and wanted none of my reproof;

26 therefore I also will laugh at your destruction; and I will rejoice against [you] when ruin comes upon you:

26 I also will laugh at your disaster. I will mock when calamity overtakes you,

27 yea when dismay suddenly comes upon you, and [your] overthrow shall arrive like a tempest; and when tribulation and distress shall come upon you, or when ruin shall come upon you.

27 when calamity overtakes you like a storm, when your disaster comes on like a whirlwind, when distress and anguish come on you.

28 For it shall be that when ye call upon me, I will not hearken to you: wicked men shall seek me, but shall not find [me].

28 Then they will call on me, but I will not answer. They will seek me diligently, but they will not find me,

29 For they hated wisdom, and did not choose the word of the Lord:

29 because they hated knowledge, and didn’t choose the fear of Yahweh.

30 neither would they attend to my counsels, but derided my reproofs.

30 They wanted none of my counsel. They despised all my reproof.

31 Therefore shall they eat the fruits of their own way, and shall be filled with their own ungodliness.

31 Therefore they will eat of the fruit of their own way, and be filled with their own schemes.

32 For because they wronged the simple, they shall be slain; and an inquisition shall ruin the ungodly.

32 For the backsliding of the simple will kill them. The careless ease of fools will destroy them.

33 But he that hearkens to me shall dwell in confidence, and shall rest securely from all evil.

33 But whoever listens to me will dwell securely, and will be at ease, without fear of harm.”

Cita 1:11–13 Augustine of Hippo, The City of God (Book XVII, Chapter 19)
… what we read in the Proverbs of impious men saying, "Let us unrighteously hide in the earth the righteous man; yea, let us swallow him up alive as hell, and let us take away his memory from the earth: let us seize his precious possession," is not so obscure that it may not be understood, without laborious exposition, of Christ …

Cita 1:20 Irenaeus of Lyons, Against Heresies (Book V, Chapter XIX)
… and therefore the "wisdom" of God, by means of which she saves all men, "is declared in [its] going forth; it uttereth [its voice] faithfully in the streets, is preached on the tops of the walls, and speaks continually in the gates of the city." For the Church preaches the truth everywhere, and she is the seven-branched candlestick which bears …

… by ought of their own; but that wisdom was in them, of which it is written in a certain book, she shall say to those that despised her, when they have fallen upon the evils which she threatened them; "I will laugh over your destruction." What wonder then is it, that the wise mock the foolish virgins?
