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 the LORD, happy is he. ²¹The wise in heart shall be called prudent: and the sweetness of the lips increaseth learning. ²²Understanding is a wellspring 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 an 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.
