Proverbs
Chapters 19:16-22
Holy Bible: Easy-To-Read Version
16Obey the law and live; ignore it and die.
17Giving help to the poor is like loaning money to the Lord. He will pay you back for your kindness.
18Discipline your children while there is still hope. Avoiding it can be deadly.
19People who are quick to become angry must pay the price. Protect them from punishment, and they become worse.
20Listen to advice and accept discipline; then you, too, will become wise.
21People might make many plans, but what the Lord says is what will happen.
22People want a friend they can trust. It is better to be poor than to be a liar.
