Bible Verses about 'Proverbs 16:16'
- How much better to get wisdom than gold,
to get insight rather than silver! - Commit to the Lord whatever you do,
and he will establish your plans. - Better a little with righteousness
than much gain with injustice. - In their hearts humans plan their course,
but the Lord establishes their steps. - Whoever gives heed to instruction prospers,
and blessed is the one who trusts in the Lord. - Gracious words are a honeycomb,
sweet to the soul and healing to the bones. - A perverse person stirs up conflict,
and a gossip separates close friends. - Better a patient person than a warrior,
one with self-control than one who takes a city. - Children’s children are a crown to the aged,
and parents are the pride of their children. - Eloquent lips are unsuited to a godless fool—
how much worse lying lips to a ruler! - Whoever would foster love covers over an offense,
but whoever repeats the matter separates close friends. - A friend loves at all times,
and a brother is born for a time of adversity. - A cheerful heart is good medicine,
but a crushed spirit dries up the bones. - Even fools are thought wise if they keep silent,
and discerning if they hold their tongues. - Fools find no pleasure in understanding
but delight in airing their own opinions. - The lips of fools bring them strife,
and their mouths invite a beating. - The words of a gossip are like choice morsels;
they go down to the inmost parts. - The name of the Lord is a fortified tower;
the righteous run to it and are safe. - The wealth of the rich is their fortified city;
they imagine it a wall too high to scale. - Before a downfall the heart is haughty,
but humility comes before honor. - A gift opens the way
and ushers the giver into the presence of the great. - The tongue has the power of life and death,
and those who love it will eat its fruit. - He who finds a wife finds what is good
and receives favor from the Lord. - One who has unreliable friends soon comes to ruin,
but there is a friend who sticks closer than a brother. - The one who gets wisdom loves life;
the one who cherishes understanding will soon prosper. - Houses and wealth are inherited from parents,
but a prudent wife is from the Lord. - Whoever keeps commandments keeps their life,
but whoever shows contempt for their ways will die. - Many are the plans in a person’s heart,
but it is the Lord’s purpose that prevails. - What a person desires is unfailing love;
better to be poor than a liar. - It is to one’s honor to avoid strife,
but every fool is quick to quarrel. - It is a trap to dedicate something rashly
and only later to consider one’s vows. - A person may think their own ways are right,
but the Lord weighs the heart. - To do what is right and just
is more acceptable to the Lord than sacrifice. - Whoever pursues righteousness and love
finds life, prosperity and honor. - All day long he craves for more,
but the righteous give without sparing. - A good name is more desirable than great riches;
to be esteemed is better than silver or gold. - Humility is the fear of the Lord;
its wages are riches and honor and life. - Start children off on the way they should go,
and even when they are old they will not turn from it. - The rich rule over the poor,
and the borrower is slave to the lender. - Do not wear yourself out to get rich;
do not trust your own cleverness. - Cast but a glance at riches, and they are gone,
for they will surely sprout wings
and fly off to the sky like an eagle. - My son, if your heart is wise,
then my heart will be glad indeed. - The father of a righteous child has great joy;
a man who fathers a wise son rejoices in him. - Know also that wisdom is like honey for you:
If you find it, there is a future hope for you,
and your hope will not be cut off. - Like a city whose walls are broken through
is a person who lacks self-control. - Do not forsake your friend or a friend of your family,
and do not go to your relative’s house when disaster strikes you—
better a neighbor nearby than a relative far away. - The prudent see danger and take refuge,
but the simple keep going and pay the penalty. - As iron sharpens iron,
so one person sharpens another. - As water reflects the face,
so one’s life reflects the heart. - If anyone turns a deaf ear to my instruction,
even their prayers are detestable.
Who gave himself for us to redeem us from all wickedness and to purify for himself a people that are his very own, eager to do what is good. For the Spirit God gave us does not make us timid, but gives us power, love and self-discipline.Next verse!With image
