Proverbs chapter 19

Bible Version
Book
Chapter
1
BetterH2896 is the poorH7326 that walksH1980 in his integrity,H8537 than he that is perverseH6141 in his lips,H8193 and is a fool.H3684
2
Also,H1571 that the soulH5315 be withoutH3808 knowledge,H1847 it is not good;H2896 and he that hastensH213 with his feetH7272 sins.H2398
3
The foolishnessH200 of manH120 pervertsH5557 his way:H1870 and his heartH3820 fretsH2196 againstH5921 the LORD.H3068
4
WealthH1952 makes manyH7227 friends;H7453 but the poorH1800 is separatedH6504 from his neighbor.H7453
5
A falseH8267 witnessH5707 shall not be unpunished,H5352 and he that speaksH6315 liesH3576 shall not escape.H4422
6
ManyH7227 will entreatH2470 the favorH6440 of the prince:H5081 and everyH3605 man is a friendH7453 to him that gives gifts.H4976
7
AllH3605 the brothersH251 of the poorH7326 do hateH8130 him: howH637 muchH637 more do his friendsH4828 goH7368 farH7368 from him? he pursuesH7291 them with words,H561 yet they are wantingH3808 to him.
8
He that getsH7069 wisdomH3820 lovesH157 his own soul:H5315 he that keepsH8104 understandingH8394 shall findH4672 good.H2896
9
A falseH8267 witnessH5707 shall not be unpunished,H5352 and he that speaksH6315 liesH3576 shall perish.H6
10
DelightH8588 is not seemlyH5000 for a fool;H3684 muchH637 less for a servantH5650 to have ruleH4910 over princes.H8269
11
The discretionH7922 of a manH120 defersH748 his anger;H639 and it is his gloryH8597 to passH5674 overH5921 a transgression.H6588
12
The king'sH4428 wrathH2197 is as the roaringH5099 of a lion;H3715 but his favorH7522 is as dewH2919 on the grass.H6212
13
A foolishH3684 sonH1121 is the calamityH1942 of his father:H1 and the contentionsH4079 of a wifeH802 are a continualH2956 dropping.H1812
14
HouseH1004 and richesH1952 are the inheritanceH5159 of fathers:H1 and a prudentH7919 wifeH802 is from the LORD.H3068
15
SlothfulnessH6103 castsH5307 into a deepH8639 sleep;H3462 and an idleH7423 soulH5315 shall suffer hunger.H7456
16
He that keepsH8104 the commandmentH4687 keepsH8104 his own soul;H5315 but he that despisesH959 his waysH1870 shall die.H4191
17
He that has pityH2603 on the poorH1800 lendsH3867 to the LORD;H3068 and that which he has givenH1576 will he payH7999 him again.H7999
18
ChastenH3256 your sonH1121 whileH3588 there is hope,H8615 and let not your soulH5315 spareH5375 for his crying.H4191
19
A man of great wrathH2534 shall sufferH5375 punishment:H6066 for ifH518 you deliverH5337 him, yetH5750 you must do it again.H3254
20
HearH8085 counsel,H6098 and receiveH6901 instruction,H4148 that you may be wiseH2449 in your latterH319 end.
21
There are manyH7227 devicesH4284 in a man'sH376 heart;H3820 nevertheless the counselH6098 of the LORD,H3068 that shall stand.H6965
22
The desireH8378 of a manH120 is his kindness:H2617 and a poorH7326 man is betterH2896 than a liar.H376 H3576
23
The fearH3374 of the LORDH3068 tends to life:H2416 and he that has it shall abideH3885 satisfied;H7649 he shall not be visitedH6485 with evil.H7451
24
A slothfulH6102 man hidesH2934 his handH3027 in his bosom,H6747 and will not so muchH1571 as bringH7725 it to his mouthH6310 again.H7725
25
SmiteH5221 a scorner,H3887 and the simpleH6612 will beware:H6191 and reproveH3198 one that has understanding,H995 and he will understandH995 knowledge.H1847
26
He that wastesH7703 his father,H1 and chasesH1272 away his mother,H517 is a sonH1121 that causes shame,H954 and bringsH2659 reproach.H2659
27
Cease,H2308 my son,H1121 to hearH8085 the instructionH4148 that causes to errH7686 from the wordsH561 of knowledge.H1847
28
An ungodlyH1100 witnessH5707 scornsH3887 judgment:H4941 and the mouthH6310 of the wickedH7563 devoursH1104 iniquity.H205
29
JudgmentsH8201 are preparedH3559 for scorners,H3887 and stripesH4112 for the backH1458 of fools.H3684
