Book of Proverbs Chapter 19
20_PRO_19_01 Better [is] the poor that walketh in his integrity, than [he that is] perverse in his lips, and is a fool.
20_PRO_19_02 Also, [that] the soul [be] without knowledge, [it is] not good; and he that hasteth with [his] feet sinneth.
20_PRO_19_03 The foolishness of man perverteth his way: and his heart fretteth against the LORD.
20_PRO_19_04 Wealth maketh many friends; but the poor is separated from his neighbour.
20_PRO_19_05 A false witness shall not be unpunished, and [he that] speaketh lies shall not escape.
20_PRO_19_06 Many will entreat the favour of the prince: and every man [is] a friend to him that giveth gifts.
20_PRO_19_07 All the brethren of the poor do hate him: how much more do his friends go far from him? he pursueth [them with] words, [yet] they [are] wanting [to him].
20_PRO_19_08 He that getteth wisdom loveth his own soul: he that keepeth understanding shall find good.
20_PRO_19_09 A false witness shall not be unpunished, and [he that] speaketh lies shall perish.
20_PRO_19_10 Delight is not seemly for a fool; much less for a servant to have rule over princes.
20_PRO_19_11 The discretion of a man deferreth his anger; and [it is] his glory to pass over a transgression.
20_PRO_19_12 The king's wrath [is] as the roaring of a lion; but his favour [is] as dew upon the grass.
20_PRO_19_13 A foolish son [is] the calamity of his father: and the contentions of a wife [are] a continual dropping.
20_PRO_19_14 House and riches [are] the inheritance of fathers: and a prudent wife [is] from the LORD.
20_PRO_19_15 Slothfulness casteth into a deep sleep; and an idle soul shall suffer hunger.
20_PRO_19_16 He that keepeth the commandment keepeth his own soul; [but] he that despiseth his ways shall die.
20_PRO_19_17 He that hath pity upon the poor lendeth unto the LORD; and that which he hath given will he pay him again.
20_PRO_19_18 Chasten thy son while there is hope, and let not thy soul spare for his crying.
20_PRO_19_19 A man of great wrath shall suffer punishment: for if thou deliver [him], yet thou must do it again.
20_PRO_19_20 Hear counsel, and receive instruction, that thou mayest be wise in thy latter end.
20_PRO_19_21 [There are] many devices in a man's heart; nevertheless the counsel of the LORD, that shall stand.
20_PRO_19_22 The desire of a man [is] his kindness: and a poor man [is] better than a liar.
20_PRO_19_23 The fear of the LORD [tendeth] to life: and [he that hath it] shall abide satisfied; he shall not be visited with evil.
20_PRO_19_24 A slothful [man] hideth his hand in [his] bosom, and will not so much as bring it to his mouth again.
20_PRO_19_25 Smite a scorner, and the simple will beware: and reprove one that hath understanding, [and] he will understand knowledge.
20_PRO_19_26 He that wasteth [his] father, [and] chaseth away [his] mother, [is] a son that causeth shame, and bringeth reproach.
20_PRO_19_27 Cease, my son, to hear the instruction [that causeth] to err from the words of knowledge.
20_PRO_19_28 An ungodly witness scorneth judgment: and the mouth of the wicked devoureth iniquity.
20_PRO_19_29 Judgments are prepared for scorners, and stripes for the back of fools.
