Proverbs 21:14-31 - NKJV - A gift in secret pacifies anger, And a bribe be...

14 A gift in secret pacifies anger, And a bribe behind the back, strong wrath.

15 It is a joy for the just to do justice, But destruction will come to the workers of iniquity.

16 A man who wanders from the way of understanding Will rest in the assembly of the dead.

17 He who loves pleasure will be a poor man; He who loves wine and oil will not be rich.

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

19 Better to dwell in the wilderness, Than with a contentious and angry woman.

20 There is desirable treasure, And oil in the dwelling of the wise, But a foolish man squanders it.

21 He who follows righteousness and mercy Finds life, righteousness and honor.

22 A wise man scales the city of the mighty, And brings down the trusted stronghold.

23 Whoever guards his mouth and tongue Keeps his soul from troubles.

24 A proud and haughty man--"Scoffer" is his name; He acts with arrogant pride.

25 The desire of the lazy man kills him, For his hands refuse to labor.

26 He covets greedily all day long, But the righteous gives and does not spare.

27 The sacrifice of the wicked is an abomination; How much more when he brings it with wicked intent!

28 A false witness shall perish, But the man who hears him will speak endlessly.

29 A wicked man hardens his face, But as for the upright, he establishes his way.

30 There is no wisdom or understanding Or counsel against the Lord.

31 The horse is prepared for the day of battle, But deliverance is of the Lord.

Proverbios 21:14 Una dádiva en secreto aplaca la ira, y el soborno bajo el manto, el furor violento.

14 A gift in secret averts anger, and a concealed bribe, strong wrath.

14 El don en secreto amansa el furor, y el presente en el seno, la fuerte ira

14 A gift in secret pacifieth anger: and a reward in the bosom strong wrath.

Proverbios 21:14 El regalo en secreto calma el enojo;
el soborno por debajo de la mesa aplaca la furia.

14 El regalo secreto apacigua el enojo;el obsequio discreto calma la ira violenta.

14 El presente en secreto amansa el furor, Y el don en el seno, la fuerte ira.

14 El presente en secreto amansa el furor, y el don en el seno, la fuerte ira.
