Proverbs 15

15A soft answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger.H7390H4617H7725H2534H6089H1697H5927H6392The tongue of the wise commends knowledge, but the mouths of fools pour out folly.H3956H2450H1847H3190H6310H3684H5042H2003The eyes of the LORD are in every place, keeping watch on the evil and the good.H5869H3068H4725H6822H7451H28964A gentle tongue is a tree of life, but perverseness in it breaks the spirit.H4832H3956H6086H2416H5558H7667H73075A fool despises his father's instruction, but whoever heeds reproof is prudent.H191H5006H1H4148H8104H8433H61916In the house of the righteous there is much treasure, but trouble befalls the income of the wicked.H1004H6662H7227H2633H8393H7563H59167The lips of the wise spread knowledge; not so the hearts of fools.H8193H2450H2219H1847H3820H36848The sacrifice of the wicked is an abomination to the LORD, but the prayer of the upright is acceptable to him.H2077H7563H8441H3068H8605H3477H75229The way of the wicked is an abomination to the LORD, but he loves him who pursues righteousness.H1870H7563H8441H3068H157H7291H666610There is severe discipline for him who forsakes the way; whoever hates reproof will die.H4148H7451H5800H734H8130H8433H419111Sheol and Abaddon lie open before the LORD; how much more the hearts of the children of man!H7585H11H3068H3826H1121H12012A scoffer does not like to be reproved; he will not go to the wise.H3887H157H3198H3212H245013A glad heart makes a cheerful face, but by sorrow of heart the spirit is crushed.H8056H3820H3190H6440H6094H3820H7307H521814The heart of him who has understanding seeks knowledge, but the mouths of fools feed on folly.H3820H995H1245H1847H6310H6440H3684H7462H20015All the days of the afflicted are evil, but the cheerful of heart has a continual feast.H3117H6041H7451H2896H3820H8548H496016Better is a little with the fear of the LORD than great treasure and trouble with it.H2896H4592H3374H3068H7227H214H410317Better is a dinner of herbs where love is than a fattened ox and hatred with it.H2896H737H3419H160H75H7794H813518A hot-tempered man stirs up strife, but he who is slow to anger quiets contention.H2534H376H1624H4066H750H639H8252H737919The way of a sluggard is like a hedge of thorns, but the path of the upright is a level highway.H1870H6102H4881H2312H734H3477H554920A wise son makes a glad father, but a foolish man despises his mother.H2450H1121H8055H1H3684H120H959H51721Folly is a joy to him who lacks sense, but a man of understanding walks straight ahead.H200H8057H2638H3820H376H8394H3212H347422Without counsel plans fail, but with many advisers they succeed.H5475H4284H6565H7230H3289H696523To make an apt answer is a joy to a man, and a word in season, how good it is!H376H8057H4617H6310H1697H6256H289624The path of life leads upward for the prudent, that he may turn away from Sheol beneath.H734H2416H4605H7919H5493H7585H429525The LORD tears down the house of the proud but maintains the widow's boundaries.H3068H5255H1004H1343H5324H1366H49026The thoughts of the wicked are an abomination to the LORD, but gracious words are pure.H4284H7451H8441H3068H2889H5278H56127Whoever is greedy for unjust gain troubles his own household, but he who hates bribes will live.H1214H1215H5916H1004H8130H4979H242128The heart of the righteous ponders how to answer, but the mouth of the wicked pours out evil things.H3820H6662H1897H6030H6310H7563H5042H745129The LORD is far from the wicked, but he hears the prayer of the righteous.H3068H7350H7563H8085H8605H666230The light of the eyes rejoices the heart, and good news refreshes the bones.H3974H5869H8055H3820H2896H8052H1878H6106H187831The ear that listens to life-giving reproof will dwell among the wise.H241H8085H8433H2416H3885H7130H245032Whoever ignores instruction despises himself, but he who listens to reproof gains intelligence.H6544H4148H3988H5315H8085H8433H7069H382033The fear of the LORD is instruction in wisdom, and humility comes before honor.H3374H3068H4148H2451H6440H3519H6038

Prayer Tents is a Christian mission organization that serves Christians around the world and their local bodies to make disciples ("evangelize") more effectively in their communities. Prayer Tents provides resources to enable Christians to form discipleship-focused small groups and make their gatherings known so that other "interested" people may participate and experience Christ in their midst. Our Vision is to make disciples in all nations through the local churches so that anyone seeking God can come to know Him through relationships with other Christians near them.
