Proverbs 15

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}
A wise
<02450>
son
<01121>
maketh a glad
<08055> (8762)
father
<01>_:
but a foolish
<03684>
man
<0120>
despiseth
<0959> (8802)
his mother
<0517>_.
Folly
<0200>
[is] joy
<08057>
to [him that is] destitute
<02638>
of wisdom
<03820>_:
but a man
<0376>
of understanding
<08394>
walketh
<03212> (8800)
uprightly
<03474> (8762)_.
{destitute...: Heb. void of heart}
Without counsel
<05475>
purposes
<04284>
are disappointed
<06565> (8687)_:
but in the multitude
<07230>
of counsellors
<03289> (8802)
they are established
<06965> (8799)_.
A man
<0376>
hath joy
<08057>
by the answer
<04617>
of his mouth
<06310>_:
and a word
<01697>
[spoken] in due season
<06256>_,
how good
<02896>
[is it]! {due...: Heb. his season}
The way
<0734>
of life
<02416>
[is] above
<04605>
to the wise
<07919> (8688)_,
that he may depart
<05493> (8800)
from hell
<07585>
beneath
<04295>_.
The LORD
<03068>
will destroy
<05255> (8799)
the house
<01004>
of the proud
<01343>_:
but he will establish
<05324> (8686)
the border
<01366>
of the widow
<0490>_.
The thoughts
<04284>
of the wicked
<07451>
[are] an abomination
<08441>
to the LORD
<03068>_:
but [the words] of the pure
<02889>
[are] pleasant
<05278>
words
<0561>_.
{pleasant...: Heb. words of pleasantness}
He that is greedy
<01214> (8802)
of gain
<01215>
troubleth
<05916> (8802)
his own house
<01004>_;
but he that hateth
<08130> (8802)
gifts
<04979>
shall live
<02421> (8799)_.
The heart
<03820>
of the righteous
<06662>
studieth
<01897> (8799)
to answer
<06030> (8800)_:
but the mouth
<06310>
of the wicked
<07563>
poureth
<05042> (8686)
out evil things
<07451>_.
The LORD
<03068>
[is] far
<07350>
from the wicked
<07563>_:
but he heareth
<08085> (8799)
the prayer
<08605>
of the righteous
<06662>_.
The light
<03974>
of the eyes
<05869>
rejoiceth
<08055> (8762)
the heart
<03820>_:
[and] a good
<02896>
report
<08052>
maketh
<01878> (0)
the bones
<06106>
fat
<01878> (8762)_.
The ear
<0241>
that heareth
<08085> (8802)
the reproof
<08433>
of life
<02416>
abideth
<03885> (8799)
among
<07130>
the wise
<02450>_.
He that refuseth
<06544> (8802)
instruction
<04148>
despiseth
<03988> (8802)
his own soul
<05315>_:
but he that heareth
<08085> (8802)
reproof
<08433>
getteth
<07069> (8802)
understanding
<03820>_.
{instruction: or, correction} {heareth: or, obeyeth} {getteth...: Heb. possesseth an heart}
The fear
<03374>
of the LORD
<03068>
[is] the instruction
<04148>
of wisdom
<02451>_;
and before
<06440>
honour
<03519>
[is] humility
<06038>_.
