- A gentle reply turns away wrath,
but a harsh word arouses anger. - A wholesome tongue is a tree of life,
but an undisciplined tongue crushes the spirit. - A fool spurns his father’s correction,
but whoever heeds admonition is prudent. - It is better to have a little and fear the Lord
than to possess immense wealth and suffer anguish. - Plans miscarry when counsel is lacking,
but they succeed when there are many counselors. - A man is joyful when he utters apt answers,
and even more satisfying is a word in season. - The fear of the Lord provides instruction in wisdom,
and to be humble is the way to honor.
Do not let your hearts be troubled.
You place your trust in God.
Trust also in me. Whatever you do, do it wholeheartedly, as if you were doing it for the Lord and not for others, since you know that you will receive from the Lord an inheritance as your reward for you are serving the Lord Christ.Next verse!With image
