Proverbs

¹⁵The simple believeth every word; But the prudent man looketh well to his going. ¹⁶A wise man feareth, and departeth from evil; But the fool beareth himself insolently, and is confident. ¹⁷He that is soon angry will deal foolishly; And a man of wicked devices is hated. ¹⁸The simple inherit folly; But the prudent are crowned with knowledge. ¹⁹The evil bow down before the good; And the wicked, at the gates of the righteous. ²⁰The poor is hated even of his own neighbor; But the rich hath many friends. ²¹He that despiseth his neighbor sinneth; But he that hath pity on the poor, happy is he.
