Pr 12 (King James)

¹ Whoso loveth instruction loveth knowledge: but he that hateth reproof is brutish.
² A good man obtaineth favour of the LORD: but a man of wicked devices will he condemn.
³ A man shall not be established by wickedness: but the root of the righteous shall not be moved.
⁴ A virtuous woman is a crown to her husband: but she that maketh ashamed is as rottenness in his bones.
⁵ The thoughts of the righteous are right: but the counsels of the wicked are deceit.
⁶ The words of the wicked are to lie in wait for blood: but the mouth of the upright shall deliver them.
⁷ The wicked are overthrown, and are not: but the house of the righteous shall stand.
⁸ A man shall be commended according to his wisdom: but he that is of a perverse heart shall be despised.
⁹ He that is despised, and hath a servant, is better than he that honoureth himself, and lacketh bread.
¹⁰ A righteous man regardeth the life of his beast: but the tender mercies of the wicked are cruel.
¹¹ He that tilleth his land shall be satisfied with bread: but he that followeth vain persons is void of understanding.
¹² The wicked desireth the net of evil men: but the root of the righteous yieldeth fruit.
¹³ The wicked is snared by the transgression of his lips: but the just shall come out of trouble.
¹⁴ A man shall be satisfied with good by the fruit of his mouth: and the recompence of a man's hands shall be rendered unto him.
¹⁵ The way of a fool is right in his own eyes: but he that hearkeneth unto counsel is wise.
¹⁶ A fool's wrath is presently known: but a prudent man covereth shame.
¹⁷ He that speaketh truth sheweth forth righteousness: but a false witness deceit.
¹⁸ There is that speaketh like the piercings of a sword: but the tongue of the wise is health.
¹⁹ The lip of truth shall be established for ever: but a lying tongue is but for a moment.
²⁰ Deceit is in the heart of them that imagine evil: but to the counsellors of peace is joy.
²¹ There shall no evil happen to the just: but the wicked shall be filled with mischief.
²² Lying lips are abomination to the LORD: but they that deal truly are his delight.
²³ A prudent man concealeth knowledge: but the heart of fools proclaimeth foolishness.
²⁴ The hand of the diligent shall bear rule: but the slothful shall be under tribute.
²⁵ Heaviness in the heart of man maketh it stoop: but a good word maketh it glad.
²⁶ The righteous is more excellent than his neighbour: but the way of the wicked seduceth them.
²⁷ The slothful man roasteth not that which he took in hunting: but the substance of a diligent man is precious.
²⁸ In the way of righteousness is life: and in the pathway thereof there is no death.

Pr 12 (Stephanus 1550)

Pr 12 (Vulgate)

¹ [Qui diligit disciplinam diligit scientiam ; qui autem odit increpationes insipiens est.
² Qui bonus est hauriet gratiam a Domino ; qui autem confidit in cogitationibus suis impie agit.
³ Non roborabitur homo ex impietate, et radix justorum non commovebitur.
⁴ Mulier diligens corona est viro suo ; et putredo in ossibus ejus, quæ confusione res dignas gerit.
⁵ Cogitationes justorum judicia, et consilia impiorum fraudulenta.
⁶ Verba impiorum insidiantur sanguini ; os justorum liberabit eos.
⁷ Verte impios, et non erunt ; domus autem justorum permanebit.
⁸ Doctrina sua noscetur vir ; qui autem vanus et excors est patebit contemptui.
⁹ Melior est pauper et sufficiens sibi quam gloriosus et indigens pane.
¹⁰ Novit justus jumentorum suorum animas ; viscera autem impiorum crudelia.
¹¹ Qui operatur terram suam satiabitur panibus ; qui autem sectatur otium stultissimus est. Qui suavis est in vini demorationibus, in suis munitionibus relinquit contumeliam.
¹² Desiderium impii munimentum est pessimorum ; radix autem justorum proficiet.]
¹³ [Propter peccata labiorum ruina proximat malo ; effugiet autem justus de angustia.
¹⁴ De fructu oris sui unusquisque replebitur bonis, et juxta opera manuum suarum retribuetur ei.
¹⁵ Via stulti recta in oculis ejus ; qui autem sapiens est audit consilia.
¹⁶ Fatuus statim indicat iram suam ; qui autem dissimulat injuriam callidus est.
¹⁷ Qui quod novit loquitur, index justitiæ est ; qui autem mentitur, testis est fraudulentus.
¹⁸ Est qui promittit, et quasi gladio pungitur conscientiæ : lingua autem sapientium sanitas est.
¹⁹ Labium veritatis firmum erit in perpetuum ; qui autem testis est repentinus, concinnat linguam mendacii.
²⁰ Dolus in corde cogitantium mala ; qui autem pacis ineunt consilia, sequitur eos gaudium.
²¹ Non contristabit justum quidquid ei acciderit : impii autem replebuntur malo.
²² Abominatio est Domino labia mendacia ; qui autem fideliter agunt placent ei.
²³ Homo versatus celat scientiam, et cor insipientium provocat stultitiam.]
²⁴ [Manus fortium dominabitur ; quæ autem remissa est, tributis serviet.
²⁵ Mœror in corde viri humiliabit illum, et sermone bono lætificabitur.
²⁶ Qui negligit damnum propter amicum, justus est ; iter autem impiorum decipiet eos.
²⁷ Non inveniet fraudulentus lucrum, et substantia hominis erit auri pretium.
²⁸ In semita justitiæ vita ; iter autem devium ducit ad mortem.]
