PROVERBS 21

V1 Just as water is turned into irrigation ditches, so The LORD directs the king’s thoughts. He turns them wherever He wants to.

V2 We can justify our every deed but God looks at our motives.

V3 God is more pleased when we are just and fair than when we give Him gifts.

V4 Pride, lust, and evil actions are all sin.

V5 Steady plodding brings prosperity; hasty speculation brings poverty.

V6 Dishonest gain will never last, so why take the risk?

V7 Because the wicked are unfair, their violence boomerangs and destroys them.

V8 A man is known by his actions. An evil man lives an evil life; a good man lives a godly life.

V9 It is better to live in the corner an attic than with a crabby woman in a lovely home.

V10 An evil man loves to harm others; being a good neighbor is out of his line.

V11 The wise man learns by listening; the simpleton can learn only by seeing scorners punished.

V12 The godly learn by watching ruin overtake the wicked.

V13 He who shuts his ears to the cries of the poor will be ignored in his own time of need.

V14 An angry man is silenced by giving him a gift!

V15 A good man loves justice, but it is a calamity to evil doers.

V16 The man who strays away from common sense will end up dead!

V17 A man who loves pleasure becomes poor; wine and luxury are not the way to riches!

V18 The wicked will finally lose; the righteous will finally win.

V19 Better to live in the desert than with a quarrelsome, complaining woman.

V20 The wise man saves for the future, but the foolish man spends whatever he gets.

V21 The man who tries to be good, loving and kind finds life, righteousness and honor.

V22 The wise man conquers the strong man and levels his defenses.

V23 Keep your mouth closed and you’ll stay out of trouble.

V24 Mockers are proud, haughty and arrogant.

V25,26 The lazy man longs for many things but his hands refuse to work. He is greedy to get, while the godly love to give!

V27 God loathes the gifts of evil men, especially if they are trying to bribe Him!

V28 A false witness must be punished; an honest witness is safe.

V29 An evil man is stubborn, but a godly man will reconsider.

V30 No one, regardless of how shrewd or well advised he is, can stand against The LORD.

V31 Go ahead and prepare for the conflict, but victory comes from GOD.
