The Book of Proverbs: Chapter 21, Verse 17 (Proverbs 21:17)
| «Proverbs Chapter 20 | Proverbs Chapter 22» |
The king's heart is in the hand of the LORD, as the rivers of water: he turneth it whithersoever he will.
The thoughts of the diligent tend only to plenteousness; but of every one that is hasty only to want.
The getting of treasures by a lying tongue is a vanity tossed to and fro of them that seek death.
It is better to dwell in a corner of the housetop, than with a brawling woman in a wide house.
When the scorner is punished, the simple is made wise: and when the wise is instructed, he receiveth knowledge.
The righteous man wisely considereth the house of the wicked: but God overthroweth the wicked for their wickedness.
Whoso stoppeth his ears at the cry of the poor, he also shall cry himself, but shall not be heard.
It is joy to the just to do judgment: but destruction shall be to the workers of iniquity.
He that loveth pleasure shall be a poor man: he that loveth wine and oil shall not be rich.
The wicked shall be a ransom for the righteous, and the transgressor for the upright.
It is better to dwell in the wilderness, than with a contentious and an angry woman.
There is treasure to be desired and oil in the dwelling of the wise; but a foolish man spendeth it up.
He that followeth after righteousness and mercy findeth life, righteousness, and honour.
A wise man scaleth the city of the mighty, and casteth down the strength of the confidence thereof.
The sacrifice of the wicked is abomination: how much more, when he bringeth it with a wicked mind?
Proverbs 25:8
Go not forth hastily to strive, lest thou know not what to do in the end thereof, when thy neighbour hath put thee to shame.
