Proverbs
Chapters 20:1-7
American Standard Version
1Wine is a mocker, strong drink a brawler; And whosoever erreth thereby is not wise.
2The terror of a king is as the roaring of a lion: He that provoketh him to anger sinneth against his own life.
3It is an honor for a man to keep aloof from strife; But every fool will be quarrelling.
4The sluggard will not plow by reason of the winter; Therefore he shall beg in harvest, and have nothing.
5Counsel in the heart of man is like deep water; But a man of understanding will draw it out.
6Most men will proclaim every one his own kindness; But a faithful man who can find?
7A righteous man that walketh in his integrity, Blessed are his children after him.
