Pr 20 (King James)

   ¹ Wine is a mocker, strong drink is raging: and whosoever is deceived thereby is not wise.
   ² The fear of a king is as the roaring of a lion: whoso provoketh him to anger sinneth against his own soul.
   ³ It is an honour for a man to cease from strife: but every fool will be meddling.
   ⁴ The sluggard will not plow by reason of the cold; therefore shall he beg in harvest, and have nothing.
   ⁵ Counsel in the heart of man is like deep water; but a man of understanding will draw it out.
   ⁶ Most men will proclaim every one his own goodness: but a faithful man who can find?
   ⁷ The just man walketh in his integrity: his children are blessed after him.
   ⁸ A king that sitteth in the throne of judgment scattereth away all evil with his eyes.
   ⁹ Who can say, I have made my heart clean, I am pure from my sin?
   ¹⁰ Divers weights, and divers measures, both of them are alike abomination to the LORD.
   ¹¹ Even a child is known by his doings, whether his work be pure, and whether it be right.
   ¹² The hearing ear, and the seeing eye, the LORD hath made even both of them.
   ¹³ Love not sleep, lest thou come to poverty; open thine eyes, and thou shalt be satisfied with bread.
   ¹⁴ It is naught, it is naught, saith the buyer: but when he is gone his way, then he boasteth.
   ¹⁵ There is gold, and a multitude of rubies: but the lips of knowledge are a precious jewel.
   ¹⁶ Take his garment that is surety for a stranger: and take a pledge of him for a strange woman.
   ¹⁷ Bread of deceit is sweet to a man; but afterwards his mouth shall be filled with gravel.
   ¹⁸ Every purpose is established by counsel: and with good advice make war.
   ¹⁹ He that goeth about as a talebearer revealeth secrets: therefore meddle not with him that flattereth with his lips.
   ²⁰ Whoso curseth his father or his mother, his lamp shall be put out in obscure darkness.
   ²¹ An inheritance may be gotten hastily at the beginning; but the end thereof shall not be blessed.
   ²² Say not thou, I will recompense evil; but wait on the LORD, and he shall save thee.
   ²³ Divers weights are an abomination unto the LORD; and a false balance is not good.
   ²⁴ Man's goings are of the LORD; how can a man then understand his own way?
   ²⁵ It is a snare to the man who devoureth that which is holy, and after vows to make enquiry.
   ²⁶ A wise king scattereth the wicked, and bringeth the wheel over them.
   ²⁷ The spirit of man is the candle of the LORD, searching all the inward parts of the belly.
   ²⁸ Mercy and truth preserve the king: and his throne is upholden by mercy.
   ²⁹ The glory of young men is their strength: and the beauty of old men is the grey head.
   ³⁰ The blueness of a wound cleanseth away evil: so do stripes the inward parts of the belly.

Pr 20 (Vulgate)

   ¹ [Luxuriosa res vinum, et tumultuosa ebrietas :
quicumque his delectatur non erit sapiens.
   ² Sicut rugitus leonis, ita et terror regis :
qui provocat eum peccat in animam suam.
   ³ Honor est homini qui separat se a contentionibus ;
omnes autem stulti miscentur contumeliis.
   ⁴ Propter frigus piger arare noluit ;
mendicabit ergo æstate, et non dabitur illi.
   ⁵ Sicut aqua profunda, sic consilium in corde viri ;
sed homo sapiens exhauriet illud.
   ⁶ Multi homines misericordes vocantur ;
virum autem fidelem quis inveniet ?]
   ⁷ [Justus qui ambulat in simplicitate sua
beatos post se filios derelinquet.
   ⁸ Rex qui sedet in solio judicii
dissipat omne malum intuitu suo.
   ⁹ Quis potest dicere : Mundum est cor meum ;
purus sum a peccato ?
   ¹⁰ Pondus et pondus, mensura et mensura :
utrumque abominabile est apud Deum.
   ¹¹ Ex studiis suis intelligitur puer,
si munda et recta sint opera ejus.
   ¹² Aurem audientem, et oculum videntem :
Dominus fecit utrumque.
   ¹³ Noli diligere somnum, ne te egestas opprimat :
aperi oculos tuos, et saturare panibus.
   ¹⁴ Malum est, malum est, dicit omnis emptor ;
et cum recesserit, tunc gloriabitur.
   ¹⁵ Est aurum et multitudo gemmarum,
et vas pretiosum labia scientiæ.]
   ¹⁶ [Tolle vestimentum ejus qui fidejussor extitit alieni,
et pro extraneis aufer pignus ab eo.
   ¹⁷ Suavis est homini panis mendacii,
et postea implebitur os ejus calculo.
   ¹⁸ Cogitationes consiliis roborantur,
et gubernaculis tractanda sunt bella.
   ¹⁹ Ei qui revelat mysteria, et ambulat fraudulenter,
et dilatat labia sua, ne commiscearis.
   ²⁰ Qui maledicit patri suo et matri,
extinguetur lucerna ejus in mediis tenebris :
   ²¹ hæreditas ad quam festinatur in principio,
in novissimo benedictione carebit.
   ²² Ne dicas : Reddam malum :
exspecta Dominum, et liberabit te.
   ²³ Abominatio est apud Dominum pondus et pondus ;
statera dolosa non est bona.
   ²⁴ A Domino diriguntur gressus viri :
quis autem hominum intelligere potest viam suam ?
   ²⁵ Ruina est homini devorare sanctos,
et post vota retractare.]
   ²⁶ [Dissipat impios rex sapiens,
et incurvat super eos fornicem.
   ²⁷ Lucerna Domini spiraculum hominis,
quæ investigat omnia secreta ventris.
   ²⁸ Misericordia et veritas custodiunt regem,
et roboratur clementia thronus ejus.
   ²⁹ Exsultatio juvenum fortitudo eorum,
et dignitas senum canities.
   ³⁰ Livor vulneris absterget mala,
et plagæ in secretioribus ventris.]
