but laziness ends in forced labor. - Anxiety weighs down the heart,
but a kind word cheers it up. - Those who guard their lips preserve their lives,
but those who speak rashly will come to ruin. - A person’s riches may ransom their life,
but the poor cannot respond to threatening rebukes. - Where there is strife, there is pride,
but wisdom is found in those who take advice. - Dishonest money dwindles away,
but whoever gathers money little by little makes it grow. - Hope deferred makes the heart sick,
but a longing fulfilled is a tree of life. - Walk with the wise and become wise,
for a companion of fools suffers harm. - An honest witness does not deceive,
but a false witness pours out lies. - There is a way that appears to be right,
but in the end it leads to death. - All hard work brings a profit,
but mere talk leads only to poverty. - Whoever is patient has great understanding,
but one who is quick-tempered displays folly. - Righteousness exalts a nation,
but sin condemns any people. - A gentle answer turns away wrath,
but a harsh word stirs up anger. - The soothing tongue is a tree of life,
but a perverse tongue crushes the spirit. - A fool spurns a parent’s discipline,
but whoever heeds correction shows prudence. - Better a little with the fear of the Lord
than great wealth with turmoil. - Plans fail for lack of counsel,
but with many advisers they succeed. - A person finds joy in giving an apt reply—
and how good is a timely word! - Wisdom’s instruction is to fear the Lord,
and humility comes before honor. - 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. - How much better to get wisdom than gold,
to get insight rather than silver! - 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.Worship the Lord your God, and his blessing will be on your food and water. I will take away sickness from among you. Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit. Rather, in humility value others above yourselves.Next verse!With image
