18 ¹The wicked is a ²ransom for the righteous, and the traitor for the upright.

19 It is ³better to live in a desert land than with a quarrelsome and fretful woman.

20 ⁴Precious treasure and oil are in a wise man's dwelling, but a foolish man ⁵devours it.

21 Whoever ⁶pursues righteousness and kindness will find ⁷life, righteousness, and honor.

22 ⁸A wise man scales the city of the mighty and brings down the stronghold in which they trust.

23 ⁹Whoever keeps his mouth and his tongue ¹⁰keeps himself out of ¹¹trouble.

24 ¹²"Scoffer" is the name of the arrogant, haughty man who acts with arrogant pride.

25 The desire of ¹³the sluggard kills him, for his hands refuse to labor.

26 All day long he craves and craves, but the righteous ¹⁴gives and does not hold back.

27 ¹⁵The sacrifice of the wicked is an abomination; how much more ¹⁶when he brings it with evil intent.

28 ¹⁷A false witness will perish, but the word of a man who hears will endure.

Proverbios 21:18 El impío es rescate para el justo, y el pérfido está en lugar de los rectos.

18 El rescate del justo será el impío, y por los rectos el prevaricador

18 The wicked shall be a ransom for the righteous, and the transgressor for the upright.

18 The wicked shall be a ransom for the righteous, And the unfaithful for the upright.

Proverbios 21:18 Los perversos son castigados en lugar de los justos,
y los traidores, en lugar de las personas honradas.

18 El rescate del justo es el impío, Y por los rectos el prevaricador.

18 El rescate del justo será el impío, y por los rectos el prevaricador.
