| 1 | Do not be envious of evil men, || And do not desire to be with them. | Be not envious of evil men, nor desire to be with them, | Do not envy the wicked, do not desire their company; | |
| 2 | For their heart meditates [on] destruction, || And their lips speak perverseness. | for their hearts devise violence, and their lips talk of trouble. | for their hearts plot violence, and their lips talk about making trouble. | |
| 3 | A house is built by wisdom, || And it establishes itself by understanding. | By wisdom a house is built, and by understanding it is established; | By wisdom a house is built, and through understanding it is established; | |
| 4 | And the inner parts are filled by knowledge, || [With] all precious and pleasant wealth. | by knowledge the rooms are filled with all precious and pleasant riches. | through knowledge its rooms are filled with rare and beautiful treasures. | |
