- Fools show their anger at once,
but the prudent ignore an insult. - House and wealth are inherited from parents,
but a prudent wife is from the Lord. - The clever see danger and hide;
but the simple go on, and suffer for it. - A fool despises a parent's instruction,
but the one who heeds admonition is prudent. - When words are many, transgression is not lacking,
but the prudent are restrained in speech. - Those who are wise understand these things;
those who are discerning know them.
For the ways of the Lord are right,
and the upright walk in them,
but transgressors stumble in them. - Even fools who keep silent are considered wise;
when they close their lips, they are deemed intelligent.
God abides in those who confess that Jesus is the Son of God, and they abide in God. The Lord is with you, while you are with him. If you seek him, he will be found by you, but if you abandon him, he will abandon you.Next verse!With image
