Proverbs 27
World English Bible
27 Don’t boast about tomorrow;
for you don’t know what a day may bring.
2 Let another man praise you,
and not your own mouth;
a stranger, and not your own lips.
3 A stone is heavy,
and sand is a burden;
but a fool’s provocation is heavier than both.
4 Wrath is cruel,
and anger is overwhelming;
but who is able to stand before jealousy?
5 Better is open rebuke
than hidden love.
6 The wounds of a friend are faithful,
although the kisses of an enemy are profuse.
7 A full soul loathes a honeycomb;
but to a hungry soul, every bitter thing is sweet.
8 As a bird that wanders from her nest,
so is a man who wanders from his home.
9 Perfume and incense bring joy to the heart;
so does earnest counsel from a man’s friend.
10 Don’t forsake your friend and your father’s friend.
Don’t go to your brother’s house in the day of your disaster.
A neighbor who is near is better than a distant brother.
11 Be wise, my son,
and bring joy to my heart,
then I can answer my tormentor.
12 A prudent man sees danger and takes refuge;
but the simple pass on, and suffer for it.
13 Take his garment when he puts up collateral for a stranger.
Hold it for a wayward woman!
14 He who blesses his neighbor with a loud voice early in the morning,
it will be taken as a curse by him.
15 A continual dropping on a rainy day
and a contentious wife are alike:
16 restraining her is like restraining the wind,
or like grasping oil in his right hand.
17 Iron sharpens iron;
so a man sharpens his friend’s countenance.
18 Whoever tends the fig tree shall eat its fruit.
He who looks after his master shall be honored.
19 Like water reflects a face,
so a man’s heart reflects the man.
20 Sheol[a] and Abaddon are never satisfied;
and a man’s eyes are never satisfied.
21 The crucible is for silver,
and the furnace for gold;
but man is refined by his praise.
22 Though you grind a fool in a mortar with a pestle along with grain,
yet his foolishness will not be removed from him.
23 Know well the state of your flocks,
and pay attention to your herds,
24 for riches are not forever,
nor does the crown endure to all generations.
25 The hay is removed, and the new growth appears,
the grasses of the hills are gathered in.
26 The lambs are for your clothing,
and the goats are the price of a field.
27 There will be plenty of goats’ milk for your food,
for your family’s food,
and for the nourishment of your servant girls.

Provérbios 27
Almeida Revista e Corrigida 2009
27 Não presumas do dia de amanhã, porque não sabes o que produzirá o dia. 2 Louve-te o estranho, e não a tua boca, o estrangeiro, e não os teus lábios. 3 Pesada é a pedra, e a areia também; mas a ira do insensato é mais pesada do que elas ambas. 4 Cruel é o furor e a impetuosa ira, mas quem parará perante a inveja? 5 Melhor é a repreensão aberta do que o amor encoberto. 6 Fiéis são as feridas feitas pelo que ama, mas os beijos do que aborrece são enganosos. 7 A alma farta pisa o favo de mel, mas à alma faminta todo amargo é doce. 8 Qual ave que vagueia longe do seu ninho, tal é o homem que anda vagueando longe do seu lugar. 9 O óleo e o perfume alegram o coração; assim a doença do amigo, com o conselho cordial. 10 Não abandones o teu amigo, nem o amigo de teu pai, nem entres na casa de teu irmão no dia da tua adversidade; melhor é o vizinho perto do que o irmão longe. 11 Sê sábio, filho meu, e alegra o meu coração, para que tenha alguma coisa que responder àquele que me desprezar. 12 O avisado vê o mal e esconde-se; mas os simples passam e sofrem a pena. 13 Quando alguém fica por fiador do estranho, toma-lhe tu a sua roupa e penhora-o pela estranha. 14 O que bendiz ao seu amigo em alta voz, madrugando pela manhã, por maldição se lhe contará. 15 O gotejar contínuo no dia de grande chuva e a mulher rixosa, um e outro são semelhantes. 16 Aquele que a contivesse, conteria o vento; e a sua destra acomete o óleo. 17 Como o ferro com o ferro se aguça, assim o homem afia o rosto do seu amigo. 18 O que guarda a figueira comerá do seu fruto; e o que vela pelo seu senhor será honrado. 19 Como na água o rosto corresponde ao rosto, assim o coração do homem ao homem. 20 O inferno e a perdição nunca se fartam, e os olhos do homem nunca se satisfazem. 21 O crisol é para a prata, e o forno, para o ouro, e o homem é provado pelos louvores. 22 Ainda que pisasses o tolo com uma mão de gral entre grãos de cevada pilada, não se iria dele a sua estultícia. 23 Procura conhecer o estado das tuas ovelhas; põe o teu coração sobre o gado. 24 Porque as riquezas não duram para sempre; e duraria a coroa de geração em geração? 25 Quando se mostrar a erva, e aparecerem os renovos, então, ajunta as ervas dos montes. 26 Os cordeiros serão para te vestires, e os bodes, para o preço do campo. 27 E haverá bastante leite de cabras para o teu sustento, para sustento da tua casa e para sustento das tuas criadas.
Ordspråksboken 27
Swedish New Living Bible (Nya Levande Bibeln)
27 Skryt inte över dina planer för morgondagen, utan vänta och se vad som kommer att hända.
2 Beröm inte dig själv, utan låt i stället andra göra det!
3 Dårens förargelse är tyngre än både sand och sten.
4 Avundsjukan är både farligare och grymmare än ilskan.
5 Det är bättre med kärlek som tillrättavisar någon öppet, än med kärlek som döljer något på grund av rädsla.
6 Det är bättre att bli slagen av en vän än kysst av en fiende!
7 Till och med honungen är smaklös för den som är mätt, men den som är hungrig kan äta vad som helst!
8 Den som måste fly från sitt hem är som en fågel som flytt från sitt bo.
9 En väns goda råd är dyrbarare än väldoftande parfym.
10 Överge aldrig en vän, vare sig det är din egen eller din fars. Då behöver du aldrig söka upp en avlägsen släkting när du själv behöver hjälp. Din granne kan ge dig den hjälp du behöver.
11 Min son, vad glad jag kommer att bli om du blir förståndig! Då blir jag hedrad inför alla.
12 Den förståndige förutser att olyckan ska komma och sätter sig i säkerhet. Den tanklöse rusar bara rakt fram, och får sedan ångra det.
13 Den som gått med på att gå i borgen för en främlings skulder får vara beredd på att man kan ta hans kläder i pant!
14 Om du med hög röst hälsar din vän alltför tidigt på morgonen, kommer han att ta det som en förbannelse.
15 En kvinna som ständigt tjatar är lika olidlig som takdropp en regnig dag.
16 Det går inte att få henne tyst, lika lite som man kan stoppa vinden eller hålla fast olja med händerna.
17 Järn kan slipas mot järn och på samma sätt slipas den ena människans karaktär mot den andres.
18 Den som vårdar sitt fruktträd kommer att få äta dess frukt, och den som vakar över någon annans intressen blir belönad.
19 I en spegel ser man sitt ansikte, och genom sina tankar och känslor känner man igen sitt rätta jag.
20 De mänskliga begären och döden är lika i ett avseende: ingen av dem får någonsin nog.
21 Silver och guld kan prövas i en smältugn, men en människa prövas genom sitt rykte.
22 Även om du misshandlar en dåre nästan till döds så får du aldrig ur honom hans dumheter.
23-24 Rikedomar kan snabbt försvinna. Kungariken består inte heller för evigt, så vaka därför noga över dina intressen. Håll ett öga på fåren och hjorden.
25-27 Då kommer det att finnas tillräckligt med ull och getmjölk till hela familjen när höet är färdigt och skörden bärgad.
Proverbs 27
New International Version
2 Let someone else praise you, and not your own mouth;
an outsider, and not your own lips.(C)
3 Stone is heavy and sand(D) a burden,
but a fool’s provocation is heavier than both.
4 Anger is cruel and fury overwhelming,
but who can stand before jealousy?(E)
5 Better is open rebuke
than hidden love.
6 Wounds from a friend can be trusted,
but an enemy multiplies kisses.(F)
7 One who is full loathes honey from the comb,
but to the hungry even what is bitter tastes sweet.
8 Like a bird that flees its nest(G)
is anyone who flees from home.
9 Perfume(H) and incense bring joy to the heart,
and the pleasantness of a friend
springs from their heartfelt advice.
10 Do not forsake your friend or a friend of your family,
and do not go to your relative’s house when disaster(I) strikes you—
better a neighbor nearby than a relative far away.
11 Be wise, my son, and bring joy to my heart;(J)
then I can answer anyone who treats me with contempt.(K)
12 The prudent see danger and take refuge,
but the simple keep going and pay the penalty.(L)
13 Take the garment of one who puts up security for a stranger;
hold it in pledge if it is done for an outsider.(M)
14 If anyone loudly blesses their neighbor early in the morning,
it will be taken as a curse.
15 A quarrelsome wife is like the dripping(N)
of a leaky roof in a rainstorm;
16 restraining her is like restraining the wind
or grasping oil with the hand.
17 As iron sharpens iron,
so one person sharpens another.
18 The one who guards a fig tree will eat its fruit,(O)
and whoever protects their master will be honored.(P)
19 As water reflects the face,
so one’s life reflects the heart.[a]
21 The crucible for silver and the furnace for gold,(S)
but people are tested by their praise.
22 Though you grind a fool in a mortar,
grinding them like grain with a pestle,
you will not remove their folly from them.
23 Be sure you know the condition of your flocks,(T)
give careful attention to your herds;
24 for riches do not endure forever,(U)
and a crown is not secure for all generations.
25 When the hay is removed and new growth appears
and the grass from the hills is gathered in,
26 the lambs will provide you with clothing,
and the goats with the price of a field.
27 You will have plenty of goats’ milk to feed your family
and to nourish your female servants.
