The Book of Proverbs: Chapter 16, Verse 4 (Proverbs 16:4)
| «Proverbs Chapter 15 | Proverbs Chapter 17» |
The preparations of the heart in man, and the answer of the tongue, is from the LORD.
The LORD hath made all things for himself: yea, even the wicked for the day of evil.
Every one that is proud in heart is an abomination to the LORD: though hand join in hand, he shall not be unpunished.
By mercy and truth iniquity is purged: and by the fear of the LORD men depart from evil.
When a man's ways please the LORD, he maketh even his enemies to be at peace with him.
A divine sentence is in the lips of the king: his mouth transgresseth not in judgment.
It is an abomination to kings to commit wickedness: for the throne is established by righteousness.
In the light of the king's countenance is life; and his favour is as a cloud of the latter rain.
How much better is it to get wisdom than gold! and to get understanding rather to be chosen than silver!
Better it is to be of an humble spirit with the lowly, than to divide the spoil with the proud.
He that handleth a matter wisely shall find good: and whoso trusteth in the LORD, happy is he.
The wise in heart shall be called prudent: and the sweetness of the lips increaseth learning.
Understanding is a wellspring of life unto him that hath it: but the instruction of fools is folly.
There is a way that seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death.
A violent man enticeth his neighbour, and leadeth him into the way that is not good.
He shutteth his eyes to devise froward things: moving his lips he bringeth evil to pass.
He that is slow to anger is better than the mighty; and he that ruleth his spirit than he that taketh a city.
