Proverbs 14:24-31
-
24 The crown of the wise is their riches: but the foolishness of fools is folly.
-
25 A true witness delivereth souls: but a deceitful witness speaketh lies.
-
26 In the fear of the LORD is strong confidence: and his children shall have a place of refuge.
-
27 The fear of the LORD is a fountain of life, to depart from the snares of death.
-
28 In the multitude of people is the king's honour: but in the want of people is the destruction of the prince.
-
29 He that is slow to wrath is of great understanding: but he that is hasty of spirit exalteth folly.
-
30 A sound heart is the life of the flesh: but envy the rottenness of the bones.
-
31 He that oppresseth the poor reproacheth his Maker: but he that honoureth him hath mercy on the poor.
