Proverbs 17:1 - Prayer Tents

17Better a dry crust with peace than a house full of feasting with strife.H2896H2720H6595H7962H1004H4392H2077H7379 2A wise servant will rule over a disgraceful son and share an inheritance among brothers.H7919H5650H4910H1121H954H2505H5159H8432H251 3A crucible is for silver and a smelter for gold, but the LORD is a tester of hearts.H4715H3701H3564H2091H3068H974H3826 4A wicked person listens to malicious talk; a liar pays attention to a destructive tongue.H7489H7181H205H8193H8267H238H1942H3956 5The one who mocks the poor insults his Maker, and one who rejoices over disaster will not go unpunished.H3932H7326H2778H6213H8056H343H5352 6Grandchildren are the crown of the elderly, and the pride of sons is their fathers.H1121H1121H5850H2205H8597H1121H1 7Excessive speech is not appropriate on a fool's lips; how much worse are lies for a ruler.H3499H8193H5000H5036H8267H8193H5081 8A bribe seems like a magic stone to its owner; wherever he turns, he succeeds.H7810H2580H68H5869H1167H6437H7919 9Whoever conceals an offense promotes love, but whoever gossips about it separates friends.H3680H6588H1245H160H8138H1697H6504H441 10A rebuke cuts into a perceptive person more than a hundred lashes into a fool.H1606H5181H995H3967H5221H3684 11An evil man seeks only rebellion; a cruel messenger will be sent against him.H7451H1245H4805H394H4397H7971 12Better for a man to meet a bear robbed of her cubs than a fool in his foolishness.H1677H7909H6298H376H408H3684H200 13If anyone returns evil for good, evil will never depart from his house.H7725H7451H2896H7451H4185H4185H1004 14To start a conflict is to release a flood; stop the dispute before it breaks out.H7225H4066H6362H4325H5203H7379H6440H1566 15Acquitting the guilty and condemning the just— both are detestable to the LORD.H6663H7563H7561H6662H8147H8441H3068 16Why does a fool have money in his hand with no intention of buying wisdom?H4242H3027H3684H7069H2451H3820 17A friend loves at all times, and a brother is born for a difficult time.H7453H157H6256H251H3205H6869 18One without sense enters an agreement and puts up security for his friend.H120H2638H3820H8628H3709H6148H6161H6440H7453 19One who loves to offend loves strife; one who builds a high threshold invites injury.H157H6588H157H4683H1361H6607H1245H7667 20One with a twisted mind will not succeed, and one with deceitful speech will fall into ruin.H6141H3820H4672H2896H2015H3956H5307H7451 21A man fathers a fool to his own sorrow; the father of a fool has no joy.H3205H3684H8424H1H5036H8055 22A joyful heart is good medicine, but a broken spirit dries up the bones.H8056H3820H3190H1456H5218H7307H3001H1634 23A wicked man secretly takes a bribe to subvert the course of justice.H7563H3947H7810H2436H5186H734H4941 24Wisdom is the focus of the perceptive, but a fool's eyes roam to the ends of the earth.H2451H6440H995H5869H3684H7097H776 25A foolish son is grief to his father and bitterness to the one who bore him.H3684H1121H3708H1H4470H3205 26It is certainly not good to fine an innocent person, or to beat a noble for his honesty.H6064H6662H2896H5221H5081H3476 27The intelligent person restrains his words, and one who keeps a cool head is a man of understanding.H3045H1847H2820H561H376H8394H3368H7119H7307 28Even a fool is considered wise when he keeps silent, discerning, when he seals his lips.H191H2790H2803H2450H331H8193H995
