Book 20 : PROVERBS - Chapter 014
014:001
He that walketh in his uprightness feareth the LORD: but he
that is perverse in his ways despiseth him
014:002
In the mouth of the foolish is a rod of pride: but the lips of
the wise shall preserve them
014:003
Where no oxen are, the crib is clean: but much increase is by
the strength of the ox
014:004
A faithful witness will not lie: but a false witness will
utter lies
014:005
A scorner seeketh wisdom, and findeth it not: but knowledge is
easy unto him that understandeth
014:006
Go from the presence of a foolish man, when thou perceivest
not in him the lips of knowledge
014:007
The wisdom of the prudent is to understand his way: but the
folly of fools is deceit
014:008
Fools make a mock at sin: but among the righteous there is
favour
014:009
The heart knoweth his own bitterness; and a stranger doth not
intermeddle with his joy
014:010
The house of the wicked shall be overthrown: but the
tabernacle of the upright shall flourish
014:011
There is a way which seemeth right unto a man, but the end
thereof are the ways of death
014:012
Even in laughter the heart is sorrowful; and the end of that
mirth is heaviness
014:013
The backslider in heart shall be filled with his own ways: and
a good man shall be satisfied from himself
014:014
The simple believeth every word: but the prudent man looketh
well to his going
014:015
A wise man feareth, and departeth from evil: but the fool
rageth, and is confident
014:016
He that is soon angry dealeth foolishly: and a man of wicked
devices is hated
014:017
The simple inherit folly: but the prudent are crowned with
knowledge
014:018
The evil bow before the good; and the wicked at the gates of
the righteous
014:019
The poor is hated even of his own neighbour: but the rich hath
many friends
014:020
He that despiseth his neighbour sinneth: but he that hath
mercy on the poor, happy is he
014:021
Do they not err that devise evil? but mercy and truth shall be
to them that devise good
014:022
In all labour there is profit: but the talk of the lips
tendeth only to penury
014:023
The crown of the wise is their riches: but the foolishness of
fools is folly
014:024
A true witness delivereth souls: but a deceitful witness
speaketh lies
014:025
In the fear of the LORD is strong confidence: and his children
shall have a place of refuge
014:026
The fear of the LORD is a fountain of life, to depart from the
snares of death
014:027
In the multitude of people is the king's honour: but in the
want of people is the destruction of the prince
014:028
He that is slow to wrath is of great understanding: but he
that is hasty of spirit exalteth folly
014:029
A sound heart is the life of the flesh: but envy the
rottenness of the bones
014:030
He that oppresseth the poor reproacheth his Maker: but he that
honoureth him hath mercy on the poor
014:031
The wicked is driven away in his wickedness: but the righteous
hath hope in his death
014:032
Wisdom resteth in the heart of him that hath understanding:
but that which is in the midst of fools is made known
014:033
Righteousness exalteth a nation: but sin is a reproach to any
people
014:034
The king's favour is toward a wise servant: but his wrath is
against him that causeth shame
