Proverbs 18:1-19 - NKJV - A man who isolates himself seeks his own desire...

1 A man who isolates himself seeks his own desire; He rages against all wise judgment.

2 A fool has no delight in understanding, But in expressing his own heart.

3 When the wicked comes, contempt comes also; And with dishonor comes reproach.

4 The words of a man's mouth are deep waters; The wellspring of wisdom is a flowing brook.

5 It is not good to show partiality to the wicked, Or to overthrow the righteous in judgment.

6 A fool's lips enter into contention, And his mouth calls for blows.

7 A fool's mouth is his destruction, And his lips are the snare of his soul.

8 The words of a talebearer are like tasty trifles, And they go down into the inmost body.

9 He who is slothful in his work Is a brother to him who is a great destroyer.

10 The name of the Lord is a strong tower; The righteous run to it and are safe.

11 The rich man's wealth is his strong city, And like a high wall in his own esteem.

12 Before destruction the heart of a man is haughty, And before honor is humility.

13 He who answers a matter before he hears it, It is folly and shame to him.

14 The spirit of a man will sustain him in sickness, But who can bear a broken spirit?

15 The heart of the prudent acquires knowledge, And the ear of the wise seeks knowledge.

16 A man's gift makes room for him, And brings him before great men.

17 The first one to plead his cause seems right, Until his neighbor comes and examines him.

18 Casting lots causes contentions to cease, And keeps the mighty apart.

19 A brother offended is harder to win than a strong city, And contentions are like the bars of a castle.

Proverbios 18:1 El que vive aislado busca su propio deseo, contra todo consejo se encoleriza.

1 Whoever ¹isolates himself seeks his own desire; he breaks out against all sound judgment.

1 Según su antojo busca el que se desvía; en toda doctrina se envolverá

1 Through desire a man, having separated himself, seeketh and intermeddleth with all wisdom.

Proverbios 18:1 La gente poco amistosa solo se preocupa de sí misma;
se opone al sentido común.

1 El egoísta busca su propio bien;contra todo sano juicio se rebela.

1 SEGUN su antojo busca el que se desvía, Y se entremete en todo negocio.

1 Segun su antojo busca el que se desvía; en toda doctrina se envolverá.
