Wisdom

Hatred stirs up strife,
But love covers all transgressions.

Wisdom

The memory of the righteous is blessed,
But the name of the wicked will rot.

Wisdom

My son, if sinners entice you,
Do not consent.

Wisdom

Riches do not profit in the day of wrath,
But righteousness delivers from death.

Wisdom

As a ring of gold in a swine’s snout
So is a beautiful woman who lacks [k]discretion.

Wisdom

The generous man will be prosperous,
And he who waters will himself be watered.

Wisdom

The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life,
And he who is wise wins souls.

Wisdom

Lying lips are an abomination to the Lord,
But those who deal faithfully are His delight.

Wisdom

Through insolence comes nothing but strife,
But wisdom is with those who receive counsel.

Wisdom

Good understanding produces favor,
But the way of the treacherous is hard.

Wisdom

He who walks with wise men will be wise,
But the companion of fools will suffer harm.

Wisdom

He who withholds his rod hates his son,
But he who loves him disciplines him diligently.

Wisdom

There is a way which seems right to a man,
But its end is the way of death.

Wisdom

The naive believes everything,
But the sensible man considers his steps.

Wisdom

Righteousness exalts a nation,
But sin is a disgrace to any people.

Wisdom

A gentle answer turns away wrath,
But a harsh word stirs up anger.

Wisdom

The eyes of the Lord are in every place,
Watching the evil and the good.

Wisdom

The plans of the heart belong to man,
But the answer of the tongue is from the Lord

Wisdom

He who is slow to anger is better than the mighty,
And he who rules his spirit, than he who captures a city.

Wisdom

The lot is cast into the lap,
But its every decision is from the Lord.

Wisdom

When a man’s ways are pleasing to the Lord,
He makes even his enemies to be at peace with him.

Wisdom

The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge;
Fools despise wisdom and instruction.

Wisdom

A friend loves at all times,
And a brother is born for adversity.

Wisdom

A joyful heart is good medicine,
But a broken spirit dries up the bones.

Wisdom

Hear, my son, your father’s instruction
And do not forsake your mother’s teaching;
Indeed, they are a graceful wreath to your head
And ornaments about your neck.

Wisdom

But the wicked will be cut off from the land
And the treacherous will be uprooted from it.

Wisdom

For the Lord gives wisdom;
From His mouth come knowledge and understanding.

Wisdom

My son, do not reject the discipline of the Lord
Or loathe His reproof,
For whom the Lord loves He reproves,
Even as a father corrects the son in whom he delights.

Wisdom

Trust in the Lord with all your heart
And do not lean on your own understanding.
In all your ways acknowledge Him,
And He will make your paths straight.

Wisdom

The way of the wicked is like darkness;
They do not know over what they stumble.

Wisdom

Watch over your heart with all diligence,
For from it flow the springs of life.

Wisdom

“The beginning of wisdom is: Acquire wisdom;
And with all your acquiring, get understanding.

Wisdom

For the ways of a man are before the eyes of the Lord,
And He watches all his paths.

Wisdom

My son, observe the commandment of your father
And do not forsake the [k]teaching of your mother;
Bind them continually on your heart;
Tie them around your neck.

Wisdom

Do not reprove a scoffer, or he will hate you,
Reprove a wise man and he will love you.
