'One' in the Bible
Throw in your lot with us [they insist];We will all have one money bag [in common],”
So your poverty will come like an approaching prowler who walks [slowly, but surely]And your need [will come] like an armed man [making you helpless].
A proud look [the attitude that makes one overestimate oneself and discount others], a lying tongue,And hands that shed innocent blood,
Or can a man walk on hot coalsAnd his feet not be scorched?
For jealousy enrages the [wronged] husband;He will not spare [the guilty one] on the day of vengeance.
Suddenly he went after her, as an ox goes to the slaughter [not knowing the outcome],Or as one in stocks going to the correction [to be given] to a fool,
Give instruction to a wise man and he will become even wiser;Teach a righteous man and he will increase his learning.
The [reverent] fear of the Lord [that is, worshiping Him and regarding Him as truly awesome] is the beginning and the preeminent part of wisdom [its starting point and its essence],And the knowledge of the Holy One is understanding and spiritual insight.
There is one who pretends to be rich, yet has nothing at all;Another pretends to be poor, yet has great wealth.
The teaching of the wise is a fountain and source of life,So that one may avoid the snares of death.
The wise woman builds her house [on a foundation of godly precepts, and her household thrives],But the foolish one [who lacks spiritual insight] tears it down with her own hands [by ignoring godly principles].
The [reverent] fear of the Lord [that leads to obedience and worship] is a fountain of life,So that one may avoid the snares of death.
A scoffer [unlike a wise man] resents one who rebukes him and tries to teach him;Nor will he go to the wise [for counsel and instruction].
Laziness casts one into a deep sleep [unmindful of lost opportunity],And the idle person will suffer hunger.
Differing weights [one for buying and another for selling] and differing measures,Both of them are detestable and offensive to the Lord.
[The judge tells the creditor], “Take the clothes of one who is surety for a stranger;And hold him in pledge [when he guarantees a loan] for foreigners.”
Do not be among those who give pledges [involving themselves in others’ finances],Or among those who become guarantors for others’ debts.
For as he thinks in his heart, so is he [in behavior—one who manipulates].He says to you, “Eat and drink,”Yet his heart is not with you [but it is begrudging the cost].
She lurks and lies in wait like a robber [who waits for prey],And she increases the faithless among men.
Like one who grabs a dog by the ears [and is likely to be bitten]Is he who, passing by, stops to meddle with a dispute that is none of his business.
[The judge tells the creditor,] “Take the garment of one who is surety (guarantees a loan) for a stranger;And hold him in pledge when he is surety for an immoral woman [for it is unlikely the debt will be repaid].”
A leader who is a great oppressor lacks understanding and common sense [and his wickedness shortens his days],But he who hates unjust gain will [be blessed and] prolong his days.
He who walks blamelessly and uprightly will be kept safe,But he who is crooked (perverse) will suddenly fall.
I have not learned [skillful and godly] wisdom,Nor do I have knowledge of the Holy One [who is the source of wisdom].
She makes [fine] linen garments and sells them;And supplies sashes to the merchants.
