Proverbs 14:34-Proverbs 15:19 - Wise Ways To Live

34 Righteousness setteth up the people; but wickedness bringeth folk to destruction.

35 A discreet servant is a pleasure unto the king; but one that is not honest provoketh him unto wrath.

1 A soft answer putteth down displeasure, but froward words provoke anger.

2 A wise tongue commendeth knowledge; a foolish mouth babbleth out nothing but foolishness.

3 The eyes of the LORD look on every place; both upon the good and bad.

4 A wholesome tongue is a tree of life; but he that abuseth it, hath a broken mind.

5 A fool despiseth his father's correction; but he that taketh heed when he is reproved, shall have the more understanding.

6 In the house of the righteous are great riches; but the increase of the ungodly are nigh destruction.

7 A wise mouth poureth out knowledge; but the heart of the foolish doth not so.

8 The LORD abhorreth the sacrifice of the ungodly; but the prayer of the righteous is acceptable to him.

9 The way of the ungodly is an abomination unto the LORD; but whoso followeth righteousness, him he loveth.

10 He that forsaketh the right street, shall be sore punished; and whoso hateth correction, falleth into death.

11 The hell with her pain is known to the LORD; how much more then the hearts of men?

12 A scornful body loveth not one that rebuketh him; neither will he come among the wise.

13 A merry heart maketh a cheerful countenance; but an unquiet mind maketh it heavy.

14 A wise heart will seek after knowledge; but the mouths of fools meddle with foolishness.

15 All the days of the poor are miserable; but a quiet heart is as a continual feast.

16 Better is a little, with the fear of the LORD, than great treasure; for they are not without sorrow.

17 Better is a mess of pottage with love; than a fat ox with evil will.

18 An angry man stirreth up strife; but he that is patient stilleth discord.

19 The way of the slothful is full of thorns; but the street of the righteous is well cleansed.
