11 My son, be wise, and make my heart glad, that I may answer him that reproacheth me.
12 A prudent man foreseeth the evil, and hideth himself; but the simple pass on, and are punished. (Chapter 22:3.)
13 Take his garment that is surety for a stranger, and take a pledge of him for a strange woman.
14 He that blesseth his friend with a loud voice, rising early in the morning, it shall be counted a curse to him.
15 A continual dropping in a very rainy day and a contentious woman are alike.
16 Whosoever hideth her hideth the wind, and the ointment of his right hand, which bewrayeth itself.
American Standard Version:
11 ¶ My son, be wise, and make my heart glad, That I may answer him that reproacheth me.
12 ¶ A prudent man seeth the evil, and hideth himself; But the simple pass on, and suffer for it.
13 ¶ Take his garment that is surety for a stranger; And hold him in pledge that is surety for a foreign woman.
14 ¶ He that blesseth his friend with a loud voice, rising early in the morning, It shall be counted a curse to him.
15 ¶ A continual dropping in a very rainy day And a contentious woman are alike:
16 He that would {1} restrain her {2} restraineth the wind; And {3} his right hand encountereth oil. {1) Heb hide 2) Heb hideth 3) Or the oil of his right hand betrayeth itself}
Young's Literal Translation:
11 ¶ Be wise, my son, and rejoice my heart. And I return my reproacher a word.
12 ¶ The prudent hath seen the evil, he is hidden, The simple have passed on, they are punished.
13 ¶ Take his garment, when a stranger hath been surety, And for a strange woman pledge it.
14 ¶ Whoso is saluting his friend with a loud voice, In the morning rising early, A light thing it is reckoned to him.
15 ¶ A continual dropping in a day of rain, And a woman of contentions are alike,
16 he who hides her hides the wind, and his right hand encounters slippery oil.

11 stude sapientiae fili mi et laetifica cor meum ut possim exprobranti respondere sermonem
12 astutus videns malum absconditus est parvuli transeuntes sustinuere dispendia
13 tolle vestimentum eius qui spopondit pro extraneo et pro alienis auferto pignus
14 qui benedicit proximo suo voce grandi de nocte consurgens maledicenti similis erit
15 tecta perstillantia in die frigoris et litigiosa mulier conparantur
16 qui retinet eam quasi qui ventum teneat et oleum dexterae suae vocabit
