Proverbs 15:1-33 KJV [1] A soft answer turns away wrath: but grievous words stir up anger. [2] The tongue of the wise uses knowledge aright: but the mouth of fools pours out foolishness. [3] The eyes of the Lord are in every place, beholding the evil and the good. [4] A wholesome tongue is a tree of life: but perverseness therein is a breach in the spirit. [5] A fool despises his fathers instruction: but he that regards reproof is prudent. [6] In the house of the righteous is much treasure: but in the revenues of the wicked is trouble. [7] The lips of the wise disperse knowledge: but the heart of the foolish does not so. [8] The sacrifice of the wicked is an abomination to the Lord : but the prayer of the upright is his delight. [9] The way of the wicked is an abomination unto the Lord : but he loves him that follows after righteousness. [10] Correction is grievous unto him that forsakes the way: and he that hates reproof shall die. [11] Hell and destruction are before the Lord : how much more then the hearts of the children of men? [12] A scorner loves not one that reproves him: neither will he go unto the wise. [13] A merry heart makes a cheerful countenance: but by sorrow of the heart the spirit is broken. [14] The heart of him that hath understanding seeks knowledge: but the mouth of fools feeds on foolishness. [15] All the days of the afflicted are evil: but he that is of a merry heart hath a continual feast. [16] Better is little with the fear of the Lord than great treasure and trouble therewith. [17] Better is a dinner of herbs where love is, than a stalled ox and hatred therewith. [18] A wrathful man stirs up strife: but he that is slow to anger appeases strife. [19] The way of the slothful man is as an hedge of thorns: but the way of the righteous is made plain. [20] A wise son makes a glad father: but a foolish man despises his mother. [21] Folly is joy to him that is destitute of wisdom: but a man of understanding walks uprightly. [22] Without counsel purposes are disappointed: but in the multitude of counsellors they are established. [23] A man hath joy by the answer of his mouth: and a word spoken in due season, how good is it ! [24] The way of life is above to the wise, that he may depart from hell beneath. [25] The Lord will destroy the house of the proud: but he will establish the border of the widow. [26] The thoughts of the wicked are an abomination to the Lord : but the words of the pure are pleasant words. [27] He that is greedy of gain troubles his own house; but he that hates gifts shall live. [28] The heart of the righteous studies to answer: but the mouth of the wicked pours out evil things. [29] The Lord is far from the wicked: but he hears the prayer of the righteous. [30] The light of the eyes rejoices the heart: and a good report makes the bones fat. [31] The ear that hears the reproof of life abides among the wise. [32] He that refuses instruction despises his own soul: but he that hears reproof gets understanding. [33] The fear of the Lord is the instruction of wisdom; and before honor is humility. IN JESUS NAME.......AMEN !!!
