Proverbs

¹⁹Better it is to be of a lowly spirit with the poor, Than to divide the spoil with the proud. ²⁰He that giveth heed unto the word shall find good; And whoso trusteth in Jehovah, happy is he. ²¹The wise in heart shall be called prudent; And the sweetness of the lips increaseth learning. ²²Understanding is a well-spring of life unto him that hath it; But the correction of fools is their folly. ²³The heart of the wise instructeth his mouth, And addeth learning to his lips. ²⁴Pleasant words are as a honeycomb, Sweet to the soul, and health to the bones. ²⁵There is a way which seemeth right unto a man, But the end thereof are the ways of death.
