Proverbs 29:8

Treasury of Scripture Knowledge

Scornful men bring a city into a snare: but wise men turn away wrath.

And they who were passing by reviled him, shaking their heads,

And some of the Pharisees who were with him heard these things, and said to him, Are we blind also?

The chief priests and Pharisees therefore called the sanhedrim together, and said, What are we about? for this man is doing many miracles.

who both murdered the Lord Jesus and their own prophets, and have persecuted us, and please not God, and are in opposition to all mankind;

So also the tongue is a little member, and proudly vaunts. Behold how great a pile of wood, a little fire kindleth!

and the prayer of faith shall recover the sick man, and the Lord will raise him up; and if he hath committed sins, they shall be forgiven him.
