Proverbs

What is desirable in a man is fidelity. It is better to be a poor man than a liar.

There are many plans in a man’s heart, nevertheless the counsel of Jehovah will stand.

Hear counsel and receive instruction, so you may be wise later in life.

A man of great anger will suffer punishment. If you rescue him, you’ll have to do it again.

Discipline your son while there is hope and don’t spare him for his crying.

He that shows kindness to the poor lends unto Jehovah and He will give a reward to the lender.

He that keeps the commandment keeps his own soul; but he that disregards his ways shall die.

Laziness induces a deep sleep and a lazy person will go hungry.

House and riches are the inheritance of fathers and a prudent wife is from the LORD.

A foolish son is the calamity of his father and the contentions of a wife are a continual dropping.
