Proverbs:29
Seeker Overlay ON
*
He ,
that being often reproved hardeneth his neck ,
shall suddenly be destroyed ,
and that without remedy .
*
When the righteous are in authority ,
the people rejoice :
but when the wicked beareth rule ,
the people mourn .
*
Whoso loveth wisdom rejoiceth his father :
but he that keepeth company with harlots spendeth his substance .
*
The king by judgment establisheth the land :
but he that receiveth gifts overthroweth it .
*
A man that flattereth his neighbour spreadeth a net for his feet pa #
am #.
*
In the transgression of an evil man there is a snare :
but the righteous doth sing and rejoice .
*
The righteous considereth the cause of the poor :
but the wicked regardeth not to know it .
*
Scornful men bring #
a city into a snare :
but wise men turn away wrath .
*
If a wise man contendeth with a foolish man ,
whether he rage or laugh ,
there is no rest .
*
The bloodthirsty #
H1818hate the upright :
but the just seek his soul .
*
A fool uttereth all his mind :
but a wise man keepeth it in till afterwards .
*
If a ruler hearken to lies dabar #,
all his servants are wicked .
*
The poor and the deceitful man meet together :
the LORD lighteneth both their eyes .
*
The king that faithfully judgeth the poor ,
his throne shall be established for ever .
*
The rod and reproof give wisdom :
but a child left to himself bringeth his mother to shame .
*
When the wicked are multiplied ,
transgression increaseth :
but the righteous shall see their fall .
*
Correct thy son ,
and he shall give thee rest ;
yea ,
he shall give delight unto thy soul .
*
Where there is no vision ,
the people perish :
but he that keepeth the law ,
happy is he .
*
A servant will not be corrected by words :
for though he understand he will not answer ma #
aneh #.
*
Seest thou a man that is hasty in his words ?
there is more hope of a fool than of him .
*
He that delicately bringeth up his servant from a child shall have him become his son at the length .
*
An angry man stirreth up strife ,
and a furious man aboundeth in transgression .
*
A mans pride shall bring him low :
but honour shall uphold the humble in spirit .
*
Whoso is partner with a thief hateth his own soul :
he heareth cursing ,
and bewrayeth it not .
*
The fear of man bringeth a snare :
but whoso putteth his trust in the LORD shall be safe .
*
Many seek the rulers favour ;
but every mans judgment cometh from the LORD .
*
An unjust man is an abomination to the just :
and he that is upright in the way is abomination to the wicked .
