Proverbs
Chapters 16:19-25
Holy Bible: Easy-To-Read Version
19It is better to be a humble person living among the poor than to share the wealth among the proud.
20Good things happen to those who learn from their experiences, and the Lord blesses those who trust him.
21People will know if someone is wise. Those who choose their words carefully can be very convincing.
22Good sense is a spring of fresh water to those who have it, but fools can offer only foolishness.
23Wise people always think before they speak, so what they say is worth listening to.
24Kind words are like honey; they are easy to accept and good for your health.
25There is a way that seems right to people, but that way leads only to death.
