3 panes+ Parallel

Más vale el buen nombre que las muchas riquezas^a,y el favor que la plata y el oro.2 El rico y el pobre tienen un lazo común¹:el que hizo a ambos^a es el SEÑOR.3 El prudente ve el mal y se esconde,mas los simples siguen adelante y son castigados^a.4 La recompensa de la humildad y el temor¹ del SEÑORson la riqueza, el honor y la vida.5 Espinos y lazos hay en el camino del perverso^a;el que cuida su alma se alejará de ellos.6 Enseña al niño el camino en que debe andar¹^a,y aun cuando sea viejo no se apartará de él.7 El rico domina a los pobres^a,y el deudor es esclavo del acreedor.8 El que siembra iniquidad^a segará vanidad,y la vara de su furor perecerá^b.9 El generoso¹ será bendito^a,porque da de su pan al pobre^b.10 Echa fuera al escarnecedor y saldrá la discordia,y cesarán también la contienda y la ignominia^a.11 El que ama la pureza de corazón^atiene gracia en sus labios, y el rey es su amigo^b.12 Los ojos del SEÑOR guardan el conocimiento,pero Él confunde las palabras del pérfido.13 El perezoso dice: Hay un león afuera^a;seré muerto en las calles.14 Fosa profunda es la boca de las mujeres extrañas^a;el que es maldito del SEÑOR caerá en ella¹^b.15 La necedad está ligada al corazón del niño;la vara de la disciplina^a la alejará de él.16 El que oprime al pobre^a para engrandecerse,o da al rico,solo llegará a la pobreza^b.

Preceptos y amonestaciones

17 Inclina tu oído y oye las palabras de los sabios^a,y aplica tu corazón a mi conocimiento;18 porque te será agradable si las guardas dentro de ti^a,para que¹ estén listas en tus labios.19 Para que tu confianza esté en el SEÑOR^a,te he instruido¹ hoy a ti también.20 ¿No te he escrito cosas excelentes¹^ade consejo y conocimiento,21 para hacerte saber la certeza¹ de las palabras de verdad^a,a fin de que respondas correctamente² al que te ha enviado^b?

22 No robes al pobre^a, porque es pobre,ni aplastes al afligido^b en la puerta;23 porque el SEÑOR defenderá su causa^a,y quitará la vida¹ de los que los roban.

24 No te asocies con el hombre iracundo;ni andes con el hombre violento^a,25 no sea que aprendas sus maneras^a,y tiendas¹ lazo para tu vida.

26 No estés entre los que dan fianzas¹,entre los que salen de fiadores de préstamos^a.27 Si no tienes con qué pagar,¿por qué han de quitarte la cama de debajo de ti^a?

28 No muevas el lindero antiguoque pusieron tus padres^a.

29 ¿Has visto un hombre diestro en su trabajo?Estará delante¹ de los reyes^a;no estará delante² de hombres sin importancia.

On Life and Conduct

A ^agood name is to be more desired than great wealth;Favor is better than silver and gold.2 The rich and the poor ¹have a common bond,The LORD is the ^aMaker of them all.3 A ^aprudent person sees evil and hides himself,But the naive proceed, and pay the penalty.4 The reward of humility and ¹the fear of the LORDAre riches, honor, and life.5 ^aThorns and snares are in the way of the perverse;One who guards himself will be far from them.6 ^aTrain up a child ¹in the way he should go,Even when he grows older he will not abandon it.7 The ^arich rules over the poor,And the borrower becomes the lender’s slave.8 One who ^asows injustice will reap disaster,And the ^brod of his fury will perish.9 One who ¹is ^agenerous will be blessed,Because he ^bgives some of his food to the poor.10 ^aDrive out the scoffer, and strife will leave,Even quarreling and dishonor will cease.11 One who loves ^apurity of heartAnd ¹whose speech is ^bgracious, the king is his friend.12 The eyes of the LORD protect knowledge,But He overthrows the words of the treacherous person.13 The ¹^alazy one says, “There is a lion outside;I will be killed in the streets!”14 The mouth of ¹^aan adulteress is a deep pit;He who is ^bcursed of the LORD will fall ²into it.15 Foolishness is bound up in the heart of a child;The ^arod of discipline will remove it far from him.16 One ^awho oppresses the poor to make ¹more for himself,Or gives to the rich, ^bwill only come to poverty.

17 ^aExtend your ear and hear the words of the wise,And apply your mind to my knowledge;18 For it will be ^apleasant if you keep them within you,¹So that they may be ready on your lips.19 So that your ^atrust may be in the LORD,I have ¹taught you today, you indeed.20 Have I not written to you ¹^aexcellent thingsOf counsels and knowledge,21 To make you ^aknow the ¹certainty of the words of truth,So that you may ²^bcorrectly answer him who sent you?

22 ^aDo not rob the poor because he is poor,Nor ^bcrush the needy at the gate;23 For the LORD will ^aplead their caseAnd ¹take the life of those who rob them.

24 Do not make friends with a person given to anger,Or go with a ^ahot-tempered person,25 Or you will ^alearn his waysAnd ¹find a snare for yourself.

26 Do not be among those who ^ashake hands,Among those who become guarantors for debts.27 If you have nothing with which to repay,Why should he ^atake your bed from under you?

28 ^aDo not move the ancient boundaryWhich your fathers have set.

29 Do you see a person skilled in his work?He will ^astand before kings;He will not stand before obscure people.
