PROVERBS 19

V1 Better be poor and honest than rich and dishonest.

V2 It is dangerous and sinful to rush into the unknown.

V3 A man may ruin his chances by his own foolishness and then blame it on The Lord!

V4 A wealthy man has many “friends”; the poor man has none left.

V5 Punish false witnesses. Track down liars.

V6 Many beg favors from a man who is generous; everyone is his friend.

V7 A poor man’s own brothers turn away from him in embarrassment; how much more his friends! He calls out after them, but they are gone.

V8 He who loves wisdom loves his own best interest and will be a success.

V9 A false witness shall be punished.

V10 It doesn't seem right for a fool to succeed or for a slave to rule over princes!

V11 A wise man restrains his anger and overlooks insults. This is to his credit.

V12 The king’s anger is as dangerous as a lion’s. But his approval is as refreshing as the dew on grass.

V13 A rebellious son is a calamity to his father, and a nagging wife annoys  like constant dripping.

V14 A father can give his sons homes and riches, but only The Lord can give them understanding wives.

V15 A lazy man sleeps soundly – and goes hungry.

V16 Keep the commandments and keep your life; despising them means death.

V17 When you help the poor you are lending to The Lord – and He pays wonderful interest on your loan!

V18 Discipline your son in his early years while there is hope. If you don’t you will ruin his life.

V19 A short-tempered man must bear his own penalty; you can’t do much to help him. If you try once you must try a dozen times!


V20 Get all the advice you can and be wise the rest of your life.

V21 Man proposes, God disposes.

V22 Kindness makes a man attractive. And it is better to be poor than dishonest.

V23 ***Reverence for God gives life, happiness, and protection from harm.***

V24 Some men are so lazy they won’t even feed themselves!

V25 Punish a mocker and others will learn from his example. Reprove a wise man and he will be the wiser.

V26 A son who mistreats his father or mother is a public disgrace.

V27 Stop listening to teaching that contradicts what you know is right.

V28 A worthless witness cares nothing for truth – he enjoys his sinning too much.

V 29 Mockers and rebels shall be severely punished.
