Proverbs 19:9-16

9A false witnessH5707 shall not be held innocent, and he that uttereth liesH8267 shall perishH6.

10Good living beseemeth not a foolH3684; how much less for a servantH5650 to have ruleH4910 over princesH8269.

11The discretion of a manH120 maketh him slow to angerH639, and it is his gloryH8597 to passH5674 over a transgressionH6588.

12The king's displeasure is as the roaringH5099 of a lionH3715; but his favour is as dewH2919 upon the grassH6212.

13A foolish sonH1121 is the calamity of his fatherH1; and the contentions of a wifeH802 are a continual dropping.

14HouseH1004 and wealthH1952 are an inheritanceH5159 from fathersH1; but a prudent wifeH802 is from Jehovah.

15Slothfulness casteth into a deepH8639 sleepH8639, and the idle soulH5315 shall suffer hungerH7456.

16He that keepeth the commandmentH4687 keepeth his soulH5315; he that is careless of his waysH1870 shall dieH4191.
