Proverbs
Chapters 19:15-21
New International Version Anglicized
15Laziness brings on deep sleep,and the shiftless go hungry.
16Whoever keeps commandments keeps their life,but whoever shows contempt for their ways will die.
17Whoever is kind to the poor lends to the Lord,and he will reward them for what they have done.
18Discipline your children, for in that there is hope;do not be a willing party to their death.
19A hot-tempered person must pay the penalty;rescue them, and you will have to do it again.
20Listen to advice and accept discipline,and at the end you will be counted among the wise.
21Many are the plans in a person’s heart,but it is the Lord’s purpose that prevails.
