Pr 21 (King James)

¹ The king's heart is in the hand of the LORD, as the rivers of water: he turneth it whithersoever he will.
² Every way of a man is right in his own eyes: but the LORD pondereth the hearts.
³ To do justice and judgment is more acceptable to the LORD than sacrifice.
⁴ An high look, and a proud heart, and the plowing of the wicked, is sin.
⁵ The thoughts of the diligent tend only to plenteousness; but of every one that is hasty only to want.
⁶ The getting of treasures by a lying tongue is a vanity tossed to and fro of them that seek death.
⁷ The robbery of the wicked shall destroy them; because they refuse to do judgment.
⁸ The way of man is froward and strange: but as for the pure, his work is right.
⁹ It is better to dwell in a corner of the housetop, than with a brawling woman in a wide house.
¹⁰ The soul of the wicked desireth evil: his neighbour findeth no favour in his eyes.
¹¹ When the scorner is punished, the simple is made wise: and when the wise is instructed, he receiveth knowledge.
¹² The righteous man wisely considereth the house of the wicked: but God overthroweth the wicked for their wickedness.
¹³ Whoso stoppeth his ears at the cry of the poor, he also shall cry himself, but shall not be heard.
¹⁴ A gift in secret pacifieth anger: and a reward in the bosom strong wrath.
¹⁵ It is joy to the just to do judgment: but destruction shall be to the workers of iniquity.
¹⁶ The man that wandereth out of the way of understanding shall remain in the congregation of the dead.
¹⁷ He that loveth pleasure shall be a poor man: he that loveth wine and oil shall not be rich.
¹⁸ The wicked shall be a ransom for the righteous, and the transgressor for the upright.
¹⁹ It is better to dwell in the wilderness, than with a contentious and an angry woman.
²⁰ There is treasure to be desired and oil in the dwelling of the wise; but a foolish man spendeth it up.
²¹ He that followeth after righteousness and mercy findeth life, righteousness, and honour.
²² A wise man scaleth the city of the mighty, and casteth down the strength of the confidence thereof.
²³ Whoso keepeth his mouth and his tongue keepeth his soul from troubles.
²⁴ Proud and haughty scorner is his name, who dealeth in proud wrath.
²⁵ The desire of the slothful killeth him; for his hands refuse to labour.
²⁶ He coveteth greedily all the day long: but the righteous giveth and spareth not.
²⁷ The sacrifice of the wicked is abomination: how much more, when he bringeth it with a wicked mind?
²⁸ A false witness shall perish: but the man that heareth speaketh constantly.
²⁹ A wicked man hardeneth his face: but as for the upright, he directeth his way.
³⁰ There is no wisdom nor understanding nor counsel against the LORD.
³¹ The horse is prepared against the day of battle: but safety is of the LORD.

Pr 21 (Vulgate)

¹ [Sicut divisiones aquarum, ita cor regis in manu Domini : quocumque voluerit, inclinabit illud.
² Omnis via viri recta sibi videtur : appendit autem corda Dominus.
³ Facere misericordiam et judicium magis placet Domino quam victimæ.
⁴ Exaltatio oculorum est dilatatio cordis ; lucerna impiorum peccatum.
⁵ Cogitationes robusti semper in abundantia ; omnis autem piger semper in egestate est.]
⁶ [Qui congregat thesauros lingua mendacii vanus et excors est, et impingetur ad laqueos mortis.
⁷ Rapinæ impiorum detrahent eos, quia noluerunt facere judicium.
⁸ Perversa via viri aliena est ; qui autem mundus est, rectum opus ejus.

¹¹ Mulctato pestilente, sapientior erit parvulus, et si sectetur sapientem, sumet scientiam.
¹² Excogitat justus de domo impii, ut detrahat impios a malo.]
¹³ [Qui obturat aurem suam ad clamorem pauperis, et ipse clamabit, et non exaudietur.
¹⁴ Munus absconditum extinguit iras, et donum in sinu indignationem maximam.
¹⁵ Gaudium justo est facere judicium, et pavor operantibus iniquitatem.
¹⁶ Vir qui erraverit a via doctrinæ in cœtu gigantum commorabitur.
¹⁷ Qui diligit epulas in egestate erit ; qui amat vinum et pinguia non ditabitur.
¹⁸ Pro justo datur impius, et pro rectis iniquus.
¹⁹ Melius est habitare in terra deserta quam cum muliere rixosa et iracunda.
²⁰ Thesaurus desiderabilis, et oleum in habitaculo justi : et imprudens homo dissipabit illud.
²¹ Qui sequitur justitiam et misericordiam inveniet vitam, justitiam, et gloriam.
²² Civitatem fortium ascendit sapiens, et destruxit robur fiduciæ ejus.
²³ Qui custodit os suum et linguam suam custodit ab angustiis animam suam.
²⁴ Superbus et arrogans vocatur indoctus, qui in ira operatur superbiam.
²⁵ Desideria occidunt pigrum : noluerunt enim quidquam manus ejus operari.
²⁶ Tota die concupiscit et desiderat ; qui autem justus est, tribuet, et non cessabit.
²⁷ Hostiæ impiorum abominabiles, quia offeruntur ex scelere.
²⁸ Testis mendax peribit ; vir obediens loquetur victoriam.
²⁹ Vir impius procaciter obfirmat vultum suum ; qui autem rectus est corrigit viam suam.
³⁰ Non est sapientia, non est prudentia, non est consilium contra Dominum.
³¹ Equus paratur ad diem belli ; Dominus autem salutem tribuit.]
