- A man's gift maketh room for him,
and bringeth him before great men. - Death and life are in the power of the tongue:
and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof. - Whoso findeth a wife findeth a good thing,
and obtaineth favour of the Lord. - A man that hath friends must shew himself friendly:
and there is a friend that sticketh closer than a brother. - He that getteth wisdom loveth his own soul:
he that keepeth understanding shall find good. - House and riches are the inheritance of fathers:
and a prudent wife is from the Lord. - He that keepeth the commandment keepeth his own soul;
but he that despiseth his ways shall die. - There are many devices in a man's heart;
nevertheless the counsel of the Lord, that shall stand. - The desire of a man is his kindness:
and a poor man is better than a liar. - It is an honour for a man to cease from strife:
but every fool will be meddling. - It is a snare to the man who devoureth that which is holy,
and after vows to make enquiry. - Every way of a man is right in his own eyes:
but the Lord pondereth the hearts. - To do justice and judgment
is more acceptable to the Lord than sacrifice. - He that followeth after righteousness and mercy
findeth life, righteousness, and honour. - He coveteth greedily all the day long:
but the righteous giveth and spareth not. - A good name is rather to be chosen than great riches,
and loving favour rather than silver and gold. - By humility and the fear of the Lord
are riches, and honour, and life. - Train up a child in the way he should go:
and when he is old, he will not depart from it. - The rich ruleth over the poor,
and the borrower is servant to the lender. - Labour not to be rich:
cease from thine own wisdom. - Wilt thou set thine eyes upon that which is not?
for riches certainly make themselves wings;
they fly away as an eagle toward heaven. - My son, if thine heart be wise,
my heart shall rejoice, even mine. - The father of the righteous shall greatly rejoice:
and he that begetteth a wise child shall have joy of him. - So shall the knowledge of wisdom be unto thy soul:
when thou hast found it, then there shall be a reward,
and thy expectation shall not be cut off. - He that hath no rule over his own spirit
is like a city that is broken down, and without walls.
Thine own friend, and thy father's friend, forsake not;
neither go into thy brother's house in the day of thy calamity:
for better is a neighbour that is near than a brother far off.But if we hope for that we see not, then do we with patience wait for it. For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.Next verse!With image
