Proverbios 29

World English Bible

1He who is often rebuked and stiffens his neck will be destroyed suddenly, with no remedy.

2When the righteous thrive, the people rejoice; but when the wicked rule, the people groan.

3Whoever loves wisdom brings joy to his father; but a companion of prostitutes squanders his wealth.

4The king by justice makes the land stable, but he who takes bribes tears it down.

5A man who flatters his neighbor spreads a net for his feet.

6An evil man is snared by his sin, but the righteous can sing and be glad.

7The righteous care about justice for the poor. The wicked aren’t concerned about knowledge.

8Mockers stir up a city, but wise men turn away anger.

9If a wise man goes to court with a foolish man, the fool rages or scoffs, and there is no peace.

10The bloodthirsty hate a man of integrity; and they seek the life of the upright.

11A fool vents all of his anger, but a wise man brings himself under control.

12If a ruler listens to lies, all of his officials are wicked.

13The poor man and the oppressor have this in common: The LORD gives sight to the eyes of both.

14The king who fairly judges the poor, his throne shall be established forever.

15The rod of correction gives wisdom, but a child left to himself causes shame to his mother.

16When the wicked increase, sin increases; but the righteous will see their downfall.

17Correct your son, and he will give you peace; yes, he will bring delight to your soul.

18Where there is no revelation, the people cast off restraint; but one who keeps the law is blessed.

19A servant can’t be corrected by words. Though he understands, yet he will not respond.

20Do you see a man who is hasty in his words? There is more hope for a fool than for him.

21He who pampers his servant from youth will have him become a son in the end.

22An angry man stirs up strife, and a wrathful man abounds in sin.

23A man’s pride brings him low, but one of lowly spirit gains honor.

24Whoever is an accomplice of a thief is an enemy of his own soul. He takes an oath, but dares not testify.

25The fear of man proves to be a snare, but whoever puts his trust in the LORD is kept safe.

26Many seek the ruler’s favor, but a man’s justice comes from the LORD.

27A dishonest man detests the righteous, and the upright in their ways detest the wicked.

Reina-Valera 1909

1EL hombre que reprendido endurece la cerviz, de repente será quebrantado; ni habrá para él medicina.

2Cuando los justos dominan, el pueblo se alegra: mas cuando domina el impío, el pueblo gime.

3El hombre que ama la sabiduría, alegra á su padre: mas el que mantiene rameras, perderá la hacienda.

4El rey con el juicio afirma la tierra: mas el hombre de presentes la destruirá.

5El hombre que lisonjea á su prójimo, red tiende delante de sus pasos.

6En la prevaricación del hombre malo hay lazo: mas el justo cantará y se alegrará.

7Conoce el justo la causa de los pobres: mas el impío no entiende sabiduría.

8Los hombres escarnecedores enlazan la ciudad: mas los sabios apartan la ira.

9Si el hombre sabio contendiere con el necio, que se enoje ó que se ría, no tendrá reposo.

10Los hombres sanguinarios aborrecen al perfecto: mas los rectos buscan su contentamiento.

11El necio da suelta á todo su espíritu; mas el sabio al fin le sosiega.

12Del señor que escucha la palabra mentirosa, todos sus ministros son impíos.

13El pobre y el usurero se encontraron: Jehová alumbra los ojos de ambos.

14El rey que juzga con verdad á los pobres, su trono será firme para siempre.

15La vara y la corrección dan sabiduría: mas el muchacho consentido avergonzará á su madre.

16Cuando los impíos son muchos, mucha es la prevaricación; mas los justos verán la ruina de ellos.

17Corrige á tu hijo, y te dará descanso, y dará deleite á tu alma.

18Sin profecía el pueblo será disipado: mas el que guarda la ley, bienaventurado él.

19El siervo no se corregirá con palabras: porque entiende, mas no corresponde.

20¿Has visto hombre ligero en sus palabras? más esperanza hay del necio que de él.

21El que regala á su siervo desde su niñez, á la postre será su hijo.

22El hombre iracundo levanta contiendas; y el furioso muchas veces peca.

23La soberbia del hombre le abate; pero al humilde de espíritu sustenta la honra.

24El aparcero del ladrón aborrece su vida; oirá maldiciones, y no lo denunciará.

25El temor del hombre pondrá lazo: mas el que confía en Jehová será levantado.

26Muchos buscan el favor del príncipe: mas de Jehová viene el juicio de cada uno.

27Abominación es á los justos el hombre inicuo; y abominación es al impío el de rectos caminos.
