Proverbs 15:20-33 - A Wise Son Brings Blessings To Others
20 A wise son maketh a glad father; but an indiscreet body shameth his mother.
21 A fool rejoiceth in foolish things; but a wise man looketh well to his own goings.
22 Unadvised thoughts shall come to naught; but whereas are men that can give counsel, there is steadfastness.
23 A joyful thing it is to a man, when his counsel is followed; and very pleasant is a word spoken in due season.
24 The way of life leadeth unto heaven; that a man should beware of hell beneath.
25 The LORD will break down the house of the proud; but he shall make fast the borders of the widow.
26 The LORD abhorreth the imaginations of the wicked; but pure words are pleasant to him.
27 The covetous man rooteth up his own house; but whoso hateth rewards, shall live.
28 A righteous man museth in his mind how to do good; but the mind of the ungodly imagineth how he may do harm.
29 The LORD is far from the ungodly; but he heareth the prayer of the righteous.
30 Like as the clearness of the eyes rejoiceth the heart; so doth a good name feed the bones.
31 The ear that hearkeneth unto wholesome warning, and enclineth thereto, shall dwell among the wise.
32 He that refuseth to be reformed, despiseth his own soul; but he that submitteth himself to correction, is wise.
33 The fear of the LORD is the right science of wisdom; and lowliness goeth before honour.
