Contrast of the Righteous and the Wicked
1Amsal-amsal Salomo. Anak yang bijak mendatangkan sukacita kepada ayahnya, tetapi anak yang bebal adalah kedukaan bagi ibunya. 2Harta benda yang diperoleh dengan kefasikan tidak berguna, tetapi kebenaran menyelamatkan orang dari maut. 3TUHAN tidak membiarkan orang benar menderita kelaparan, tetapi keinginan orang fasik ditolak-Nya. 4Tangan yang lamban membuat miskin, tetapi tangan orang rajin menjadikan kaya. 5Siapa mengumpulkan pada musim panas, ia berakal budi; siapa tidur pada waktu panen membuat malu. 6Berkat ada di atas kepala orang benar, tetapi mulut orang fasik menyembunyikan kelaliman. 7Kenangan kepada orang benar mendatangkan berkat, tetapi nama orang fasik menjadi busuk. 8Siapa bijak hati, memperhatikan perintah-perintah, tetapi siapa bodoh bicaranya, akan jatuh. 9Siapa bersih kelakuannya, aman jalannya, tetapi siapa berliku-liku jalannya, akan diketahui. 10Siapa mengedipkan mata, menyebabkan kesusahan, siapa bodoh bicaranya, akan jatuh. 11Mulut orang benar adalah sumber kehidupan, tetapi mulut orang fasik menyembunyikan kelaliman. 12Kebencian menimbulkan pertengkaran, tetapi kasih menutupi segala pelanggaran. 13Di bibir orang berpengertian terdapat hikmat, tetapi pentung tersedia bagi punggung orang yang tidak berakal budi. 14Orang bijak menyimpan pengetahuan, tetapi mulut orang bodoh adalah kebinasaan yang mengancam. 15Kota yang kuat bagi orang kaya ialah hartanya, tetapi yang menjadi kebinasaan bagi orang melarat ialah kemiskinan. 16Upah pekerjaan orang benar membawa kepada kehidupan, penghasilan orang fasik membawa kepada dosa. 17Siapa mengindahkan didikan, menuju jalan kehidupan, tetapi siapa mengabaikan teguran, tersesat. 18Siapa menyembunyikan kebencian, dusta bibirnya; siapa mengumpat adalah orang bebal. 19Di dalam banyak bicara pasti ada pelanggaran, tetapi siapa yang menahan bibirnya, berakal budi. 20Lidah orang benar seperti perak pilihan, tetapi pikiran orang fasik sedikit nilainya. 21Bibir orang benar menggembalakan banyak orang, tetapi orang bodoh mati karena kurang akal budi. 22Berkat Tuhanlah yang menjadikan kaya, susah payah tidak akan menambahinya. 23Berlaku cemar adalah kegemaran orang bebal, sebagaimana melakukan hikmat bagi orang yang pandai. 24Apa yang menggentarkan orang fasik, itulah yang akan menimpa dia, tetapi keinginan orang benar akan diluluskan. 25Bila taufan melanda, lenyaplah orang fasik, tetapi orang benar adalah alas yang abadi. 26Seperti cuka bagi gigi dan asap bagi mata, demikian si pemalas bagi orang yang menyuruhnya. 27Takut akan TUHAN memperpanjang umur, tetapi tahun-tahun orang fasik diperpendek. 28Harapan orang benar akan menjadi sukacita, tetapi harapan orang fasik menjadi sia-sia. 29Jalan TUHAN adalah perlindungan bagi orang yang tulus, tetapi kebinasaan bagi orang yang berbuat jahat. 30Orang benar tidak terombang-ambing untuk selama-lamanya, tetapi orang fasik tidak akan mendiami negeri. 31Mulut orang benar mengeluarkan hikmat, tetapi lidah bercabang akan dikerat. 32Bibir orang benar tahu akan hal yang menyenangkan, tetapi mulut orang fasik hanya tahu tipu muslihat.
1The proverbs of Solomon.
A wise son makes a father glad,
But a foolish son is a grief to his mother. 2Ill-gotten gains do not benefit,
But righteousness rescues from death. 3The LORD will not allow the righteous to hunger,
But He will reject the craving of the wicked. 4Poor is one who works with a lazy hand,
But the hand of the diligent makes rich. 5He who gathers in summer is a son who acts wisely,
But he who sleeps in harvest is a son who acts shamefully. 6Blessings are on the head of the righteous,
But the mouth of the wicked conceals violence. 7The mentioning of the righteous is a blessing,
But the name of the wicked will rot. 8The wise of heart will receive commands,
But a babbling fool will come to ruin. 9One who walks in integrity walks securely,
But one who perverts his ways will be found out. 10He who winks the eye causes trouble,
And a babbling fool will come to ruin. 11The mouth of the righteous is a fountain of life,
But the mouth of the wicked conceals violence. 12Hatred stirs up strife,
But love covers all offenses. 13On the lips of the discerning, wisdom is found,
But a rod is for the back of him who has no sense. 14Wise people store up knowledge,
But with the mouth of the foolish, ruin is at hand. 15The rich person’s wealth is his fortress,
The ruin of the poor is their poverty. 16The wages of the righteous is life,
The income of the wicked, punishment. 17One who is on the path of life follows instruction,
But one who ignores a rebuke goes astray. 18One who conceals hatred has lying lips,
And one who spreads slander is a fool. 19When there are many words, wrongdoing is unavoidable,
But one who restrains his lips is wise. 20The tongue of the righteous is like choice silver,
The heart of the wicked is worth little. 21The lips of the righteous feed many,
But fools die for lack of understanding. 22It is the blessing of the LORD that makes rich,
And He adds no sorrow to it. 23Doing wickedness is like sport to a fool,
And so is wisdom to a person of understanding. 24What the wicked fears will come upon him,
But the desire of the righteous will be granted. 25When the whirlwind passes, the wicked is no more,
But the righteous has an everlasting foundation. 26Like vinegar to the teeth and smoke to the eyes,
So is the lazy one to those who send him. 27The fear of the LORD prolongs life,
But the years of the wicked will be shortened. 28The hope of the righteous is gladness,
But the expectation of the wicked perishes. 29The way of the LORD is a stronghold for the upright,
But ruin to the workers of injustice. 30The righteous will never be shaken,
But the wicked will not live in the land. 31The mouth of the righteous flows with wisdom,
But the perverted tongue will be cut out. 32The lips of the righteous know what is acceptable,
But the mouth of the wicked, what is perverted.
