Proverbs 20:10-16 The Scriptures 1998 (ISR98)

10. Differing weights and differing measures, Both of them are an abomination to יהוה.

11. Even a child is known by his deeds, Whether his work is clear and right.

12. The hearing ear and the seeing eye, יהוה has made both of them.

13. Do not love sleep, lest you become poor; Open your eyes, be satisfied with bread.

14. “Evil! Evil!” cries the buyer; But when he has gone his way, then he boasts.

15. There is gold and a multitude of rubies, But the lips of knowledge are a precious vessel.

16. Take the garment of one who is guarantor for a stranger, And hold it as a pledge when it is for foreigners.
