Proverbs 15:1-19

A soft
<07390>

answer
<04617>

turneth
<07725> (8686)

away wrath
<02534>_:

but grievous
<06089>

words
<01697>

stir up
<05927> (8686)

anger
<0639>_.

The tongue
<03956>

of the wise
<02450>

useth knowledge
<01847>

aright
<03190> (8686)_:

but the mouth
<06310>

of fools
<03684>

poureth out
<05042> (8686)

foolishness
<0200>_.

{poureth: Heb. belcheth, or, bubbleth}

The eyes
<05869>

of the LORD
<03068>

[are] in every place
<04725>_,

beholding
<06822> (8802)

the evil
<07451>

and the good
<02896>_.

A wholesome
<04832>

tongue
<03956>

[is] a tree
<06086>

of life
<02416>_:

but perverseness
<05558>

therein [is] a breach
<07667>

in the spirit
<07307>_.

{A wholesome...: Heb. The healing of the tongue}

A fool
<0191>

despiseth
<05006> (8799)

his father's
<01>

instruction
<04148>_:

but he that regardeth
<08104> (8802)

reproof
<08433>

is prudent
<06191> (8686)_.

In the house
<01004>

of the righteous
<06662>

[is] much
<07227>

treasure
<02633>_:

but in the revenues
<08393>

of the wicked
<07563>

is trouble
<05916> (8737)_.

The lips
<08193>

of the wise
<02450>

disperse
<02219> (8762)

knowledge
<01847>_:

but the heart
<03820>

of the foolish
<03684>

[doeth] not so.

The sacrifice
<02077>

of the wicked
<07563>

[is] an abomination
<08441>

to the LORD
<03068>_:

but the prayer
<08605>

of the upright
<03477>

[is] his delight
<07522>_.

The way
<01870>

of the wicked
<07563>

[is] an abomination
<08441>

unto the LORD
<03068>_:

but he loveth
<0157> (8799)

him that followeth
<07291> (8764)

after righteousness
<06666>_.

Correction
<04148>

[is] grievous
<07451>

unto him that forsaketh
<05800> (8802)

the way
<0734>_:

[and] he that hateth
<08130> (8802)

reproof
<08433>

shall die
<04191> (8799)_.

{Correction: or, Instruction}

Hell
<07585>

and destruction
<011>

[are] before the LORD
<03068>_:

how much more then the hearts
<03826>

of the children
<01121>

of men
<0120>_?

A scorner
<03887> (8801)

loveth
<0157> (8799)

not one that reproveth
<03198> (8687)

him: neither will he go
<03212> (8799)

unto the wise
<02450>_.

A merry
<08056>

heart
<03820>

maketh a cheerful
<03190> (8686)

countenance
<06440>_:

but by sorrow
<06094>

of the heart
<03820>

the spirit
<07307>

is broken
<05218>_.

The heart
<03820>

of him that hath understanding
<0995> (8737)

seeketh
<01245> (8762)

knowledge
<01847>_:

but the mouth
<06310> (8675) <06440>

of fools
<03684>

feedeth
<07462> (8799)

on foolishness
<0200>_.

All the days
<03117>

of the afflicted
<06041>

[are] evil
<07451>_:

but he that is of a merry
<02896>

heart
<03820>

[hath] a continual
<08548>

feast
<04960>_.

Better
<02896>

[is] little
<04592>

with the fear
<03374>

of the LORD
<03068>

than great
<07227>

treasure
<0214>

and trouble
<04103>

therewith.

Better
<02896>

[is] a dinner
<0737>

of herbs
<03419>

where love
<0160>

is, than a stalled
<075> (8803)

ox
<07794>

and hatred
<08135>

therewith.

A wrathful
<02534>

man
<0376>

stirreth up
<01624> (8762)

strife
<04066>_:

but [he that is] slow
<0750>

to anger
<0639>

appeaseth
<08252> (8686)

strife
<07379>_.

The way
<01870>

of the slothful
<06102>

[man is] as an hedge
<04881>

of thorns
<02312>_:

but the way
<0734>

of the righteous
<03477>

[is] made plain
<05549> (8803)_.

{is made...: Heb. is raised up as a causey}
