Proverbs 15:33
chevron_left
chevron_right
1
A soft answer
turneth away wrath: but grievous words stir up anger.
2
The tongue of the wise useth knowledge aright: but the mouth of fools poureth out foolishness.
3
The eyes of the
L
ORD
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 despiseth his father’s instruction: but he that regardeth 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
doeth
not so.
8
The sacrifice of the wicked
is
an abomination to the
L
ORD
: but the prayer of the upright
is
his delight.
9
The way of the wicked
is
an abomination unto the
L
ORD
: but he loveth him that followeth after righteousness.
10
Correction
is
grievous unto him that forsaketh the way:
and
he that hateth reproof shall die.
11
Hell and destruction
are
before the
L
ORD
: how much more then the hearts of the children of men?
12
A scorner loveth not one that reproveth him: neither will he go unto the wise.
13
A merry heart maketh a cheerful countenance: but by sorrow of the heart the spirit is broken.
14
The heart of him that hath understanding seeketh knowledge: but the mouth of fools feedeth 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
L
ORD
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 stirreth up strife: but
he that is
slow to anger appeaseth 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 maketh a glad father: but a foolish man despiseth his mother.
21
Folly
is
joy to
him that is
destitute of wisdom: but a man of understanding walketh 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
L
ORD
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
L
ORD
: but
the words
of the pure
are
pleasant words.
27
He that is greedy of gain troubleth his own house; but he that hateth gifts shall live.
28
The heart of the righteous studieth to answer: but the mouth of the wicked poureth out evil things.
29
The
L
ORD
is
far from the wicked: but he heareth the prayer of the righteous.
30
The light of the eyes rejoiceth the heart:
and
a good report maketh the bones fat.
31
The ear that heareth the reproof of life abideth among the wise.
32
He that refuseth instruction despiseth his own soul: but he that heareth reproof getteth understanding.
The fear of the
L
ORD
is
the instruction of wisdom; and before honour
is
humility.
