Proverbs 18 Verses

1 He that separateth himself seeketh {cf15i his own} desire, and rageth against all sound wisdom.
2 A fool hath no delight in understanding, but only that his heart may reveal itself.
3 When the wicked cometh, there cometh also contempt, and with ignominy cometh reproach.
4 The words of a man-s mouth are as deep waters; the wellspring of wisdom is as a flowing brook.
5 To accept the person of the wicked is not good, {cf15i nor} to turn aside the righteous in judgment.
6 A fool-s lips enter into contention, and his mouth calleth for stripes.
7 A fool-s mouth is his destruction, and his lips are the snare of his soul.
8 The words of a whisperer are as dainty, morsels, and they go down into the innermost parts of the belly.
9 He also that is slack in his work is brother to him that is a destroyer.
10 The name of the LORD is a strong tower: the righteous runneth into it, and is safe.
11 The rich man-s wealth is his strong city, and as an high wall in his own imagination.
12 Before destruction the heart of man is haughty, and before honour {cf15i goeth} humility.
13 He that giveth answer before he heareth, it is folly and shame unto him.
14 The spirit of a man will sustain his infirmity; but a broken spirit who can bear?
15 The heart of the prudent getteth knowledge; and the ear of the wise seeketh knowledge.
16 A man-s gift maketh room for him, and bringeth him before great men.
17 He that pleadeth his cause first {cf15i seemeth} just; but his neighbour cometh and searcheth him out.
18 The lot causeth contentions to cease, and parteth between the mighty.
19 A brother offended {cf15i is harder to be won} than a strong city: and {cf15i such} contentions are like the bars of a castle.
20 A man-s belly shall be filled with the fruit of his mouth; with the increase of his lips shall he be satisfied.
21 Death and life are in the power of the tongue; and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof.
22 Whoso findeth a wife findeth a good thing, and obtaineth favour of the LORD.
23 The poor useth entreaties: but the rich answereth roughly.
24 He that maketh many friends {cf15i doeth it} to his own destruction: but there is a friend that sticketh closer than a brother.
