Proverbs

He that handles a matter wisely shall find good and whoever trusts in Jehovah is happy.

It is better to be of a humble spirit with the lowly than to divide the spoil with the proud.

Pride goes before destruction and an haughty spirit before a fall.

The highway of the upright is to depart from evil. He that keeps his way preserves his soul.

Get wisdom, for it is better than gold and get understanding, because it is preferable to silver!

In the light of the king’s countenance is life and his favor is as a cloud of the latter rain.

The wrath of a king is as messengers of death, but a wise man will pacify it.

Righteous lips are the delight of kings and they love him that speaks honesty.

It is an abomination to kings to commit wickedness, for the throne is established by righteousness.

Honest balances and scales are Jehovah’s, all the weights in the bag are His concern.
