Proverbs 14

I thought I would have a respite and do a bit of Proverbs. But I picked a chapter that had another 10 missing verses in my data. So for the second time in a few months, puzzle pieces have been found under the sofa! I had this chapter marked as having only 25 verses and it really has 35 verses.

Proverbs 14 Fn Min Max Syll
חַכְמ֣וֹת נָ֭שִׁים בָּנְתָ֣ה בֵיתָ֑הּ
וְ֝אִוֶּ֗לֶת בְּיָדֶ֥יהָ תֶהֶרְסֶֽנּוּ
1 Wise women. She builds her house,
but foolishness in her hands overthrows it.
3e 4B 8
12
הוֹלֵ֣ךְ בְּ֭יָשְׁרוֹ יְרֵ֣א יְהוָ֑ה
וּנְל֖וֹז דְּרָכָ֣יו בּוֹזֵֽהוּ
2 Walking in its uprightness is one who fears Yahweh,
but the drifter in its ways despises him.
3e 4B 9
8
בְּֽפִי־אֱ֭וִיל חֹ֣טֶר גַּאֲוָ֑ה
וְשִׂפְתֵ֥י חֲ֝כָמִ֗ים תִּשְׁמוּרֵֽם
3 In the mouth of the obstinate, a twig of pride,
but the lips of the shrewd shelter them.
3e 4B 8
9
בְּאֵ֣ין אֲ֭לָפִים אֵב֣וּס בָּ֑ר
וְרָב־תְּ֝בוּא֗וֹת בְּכֹ֣חַ שֽׁוֹר
4 When there are no droves, a manger is purified,
but vast income is in the power of a bull.
3e 4B 8
9
עֵ֣ד אֱ֭מוּנִים לֹ֣א יְכַזֵּ֑ב
וְיָפִ֥יחַ כְּ֝זָבִ֗ים עֵ֣ד שָֽׁקֶר
5 B A witness to faithfulness not does lie,
but a snorter of lies is a false witness.
3e 4B 8
10
בִּקֶּשׁ־לֵ֣ץ חָכְמָ֣ה וָאָ֑יִן
וְדַ֖עַת לְנָב֣וֹן נָקָֽל
6 One who is scornful sought wisdom, and there was none,
but knowledge, to one who discerns, is trifling.
3e 4B 8
8
לֵ֣ךְ מִ֭נֶּגֶד לְאִ֣ישׁ כְּסִ֑יל
וּבַל־יָ֝דַ֗עְתָּ שִׂפְתֵי־דָֽעַת
7 B Walk away before a dullard,
when you do not know the lips of knowledge.
3e 4B 8
8
חָכְמַ֣ת עָ֭רוּם הָבִ֣ין דַּרְכּ֑וֹ
וְאִוֶּ֖לֶת כְּסִילִ֣ים מִרְמָֽה
8 The wisdom of the crafty is the discernment of his way,
but the foolishness of dullards is from deceit.
3e 4B 8
9
אֱ֭וִלִים יָלִ֣יץ אָשָׁ֑ם
וּבֵ֖ין יְשָׁרִ֣ים רָצֽוֹן
9 g The foolish are scornful of offense,
but between the upright is acceptance.
3e 4B 7
7
לֵ֗ב י֭וֹדֵעַ מָרַּ֣ת נַפְשׁ֑וֹ
וּ֝בְשִׂמְחָת֗וֹ לֹא־יִתְעָ֥רַב זָֽר
10 ~ A heart knows its provocation,
and in its gladness, a stranger does not intermingle.
3e 4B 8
9
בֵּ֣ית רְ֭שָׁעִים יִשָּׁמֵ֑ד
וְאֹ֖הֶל יְשָׁרִ֣ים יַפְרִֽיחַ
11 B The house of the wicked will be exterminated,
but the tent of the upright will flourish.
3e 4B 7

יֵ֤שׁ דֶּ֣רֶךְ יָ֭שָׁר לִפְנֵי־אִ֑ישׁ
וְ֝אַחֲרִיתָ֗הּ דַּרְכֵי־מָֽוֶת
12 C There is a way that is upright facing a person,
and following it are the ways of death.
3e 4C 8
8
גַּם־בִּשְׂח֥וֹק יִכְאַב־לֵ֑ב
וְאַחֲרִיתָ֖הּ שִׂמְחָ֣ה תוּגָֽה
13 Furthermore in laughter is sorrow of heart,
and and the aftermath of its gladness is sadness.

9
מִדְּרָכָ֣יו יִ֭שְׂבַּע ס֣וּג לֵ֑ב
וּ֝מֵעָלָ֗יו אִ֣ישׁ טֽוֹב
14 From its ways, the spineless of heart will be satisfied,
but from itself, a good person.

6
פֶּ֭תִי יַאֲמִ֣ין לְכָל־דָּבָ֑ר
וְ֝עָר֗וּם יָבִ֥ין לַאֲשֻׁרֽוֹ
15 g Simplicity puts faith in any word,
but craftiness discerns its steps.
3e 4B 9
9
חָכָ֣ם יָ֭רֵא וְסָ֣ר מֵרָ֑ע
וּ֝כְסִ֗יל מִתְעַבֵּ֥ר וּבוֹטֵֽחַ
16 One who is wise fears and turns aside from evil,
but a dullard is furious and trusting.
3e 4B 8
9
קְֽצַר־אַ֭פַּיִם יַעֲשֶׂ֣ה אִוֶּ֑לֶת
וְאִ֥ישׁ מְ֝זִמּ֗וֹת יִשָּׂנֵֽא

and a scheming person is hated.

נָחֲל֣וּ פְתָאיִ֣ם אִוֶּ֑לֶת
וַֽ֝עֲרוּמִ֗ים יַכְתִּ֥רוּ דָֽעַת

but the crafty, let knowledge encircle.
3e 4B 9

שַׁח֣וּ רָ֭עִים לִפְנֵ֣י טוֹבִ֑ים
וּ֝רְשָׁעִ֗ים עַֽל־שַׁעֲרֵ֥י צַדִּֽיק

and the wicked, against the gates of a righteous one.

9
גַּם־לְ֭רֵעֵהוּ יִשָּׂ֣נֵא רָ֑שׁ
וְאֹהֲבֵ֖י עָשִׁ֣יר רַבִּֽים

and those who love one who is rich are many.

בָּז־לְרֵעֵ֥הוּ חוֹטֵ֑א
וּמְחוֹנֵ֖ן עֲנָוִ֣ים אַשְׁרָֽיו

But kindness and truth, those who plough good.

בְּכָל־עֶ֭צֶב יִהְיֶ֣ה מוֹתָ֑ר
וּדְבַר־שְׂ֝פָתַ֗יִם אַךְ־לְמַחְסֽוֹר

but the word of lips surely is to deprivation.

עֲטֶ֣רֶת חֲכָמִ֣ים עָשְׁרָ֑ם
אִוֶּ֖לֶת כְּסִילִ֣ים אִוֶּֽלֶת

The foolishness of dullards is foolish.

and exhaling lies is from deceit.

וּבְאֶ֥פֶס לְ֝אֹ֗ם מְחִתַּ֥ת רָזֽוֹן
28 In the abundance of a people is the honour of a monarch,
but in the termination of a tribe, the disarray of a rule-maker.
3e 4A 7
10
אֶ֣רֶךְ אַ֭פַּיִם רַב־תְּבוּנָ֑ה
וּקְצַר־ר֝֗וּחַ מֵרִ֥ים אִוֶּֽלֶת
29 B Slow to anger, abundant of discernment,
but but the reaper of wind is exalting foolishness.

וּרְקַ֖ב עֲצָמ֣וֹת קִנְאָֽה

but rottenness the bones of jealousy.
3e 4B 8

עֹ֣שֵֽׁקP דָּ֭ל חֵרֵ֣ף עֹשֵׂ֑הוּ
וּ֝מְכַבְּד֗וֹ חֹנֵ֥ן אֶבְיֽוֹן

וְחֹסֶ֖ה בְמוֹת֣וֹ צַדִּֽיק

וּבְקֶ֥רֶב כְּ֝סִילִ֗ים תִּוָּדֵֽעַ

but what is within dullards is made known.

10
צְדָקָ֥ה תְרֽוֹמֵֽם־גּ֑וֹי
וְחֶ֖סֶד לְאֻמִּ֣ים חַטָּֽאת

but kindness for tribes, a sin offering.
3e 4B 8
8
רְֽצוֹן־מֶ֭לֶךְ לְעֶ֣בֶד מַשְׂכִּ֑יל
וְ֝עֶבְרָת֗וֹ תִּהְיֶ֥ה מֵבִֽישׁ
35 Acceptance from a monarch is for an insightful servant,
but its fury, it will be, that causes shame.

Footnote:
It is a slight chore to my memory to figure out what to do to add missing words, but the fixing of these 10 missing verses was less than 1/2 an hour's work. All the processes by which I built the data structure still work as expected. For my own sake, this is the process:
  1. fix the number of chapters in the chapters table.
  2. use an algorithm called 'initial keyword of verse' to insert a word into the keyword table.
  3. use the web service interface to tanach.us to get the raw data.
  4. use an algorithm called 'adjust oleveyored' to insert carriage returns based on the accents and to remove unwanted characters and annotations in the text.
  5. use an algorithm called 'keywords from leaf' to read the Hebrew and create words for the word table. This also guesses the root from the letter patterns. (Every one of the 70 new words appears to have been guessed correctly.)
  6. use the music interface to produce the music XML, then export to PDF and MIDI files.
  7. place the music files in the shared Google drive and One-drive locations.
  8. rebuild the table of musical statistics.
Of course I still need to find all these things on my computers. I use a set of forms and some direct interaction with the data through SQL developer on an Oracle XE instance as well as the music program Musescore. In principle, all this could be interactive online, but that would require an infusion of capital outside the many hours of my time.
