Thematic Bible







Better is a poor and wise youth than an old and foolish king who doesn't know how to receive admonition any more. For out of prison he came forth to be king; yes, even in his kingdom he was born poor.














Mockers stir up a city, but wise men turn away anger.



Therefore hear the word of the LORD, you scoffers, that rule this people in Jerusalem: "Because you have said, 'We have made a covenant with death, and with Sheol are we in agreement. When the overflowing scourge passes through, it won't come to us; for we have made lies our refuge, and we have hidden ourselves under falsehood.'"


A scoffer seeks wisdom, and doesn't find it, but knowledge comes easily to a discerning person.

"How long, you simple ones, will you love simplicity? How long will mockers delight themselves in mockery, and fools hate knowledge?

The LORD's curse is in the house of the wicked, but he blesses the habitation of the righteous. Surely he is scornful to scoffers, but he gives grace to the humble.
