| Proverbs 15: (YLT) |
| 1) A soft answer turneth back fury, And a grievous word raiseth up anger. |
| 2) The tongue of the wise maketh knowledge good, And the mouth of fools uttereth folly. |
| 3) In every place are the eyes of Jehovah, Watching the evil and the good. |
| 4) A healed tongue [is] a tree of life, And perverseness in it -- a breach in the spirit. |
| 5) A fool despiseth the instruction of his father, And whoso is regarding reproof is prudent. |
| 6) [In] the house of the righteous [is] abundant strength, And in the increase of the wicked -- trouble. |
| 7) The lips of the wise scatter knowledge, And the heart of fools [is] not right. |
| 8) The sacrifice of the wicked [is] an abomination to Jehovah, And the prayer of the upright [is] His delight. |
| 9) An abomination to Jehovah [is] the way of the wicked, And whoso is pursuing righteousness He loveth. |
| 10) Chastisement [is] grievous to him who is forsaking the path, Whoso is hating reproof dieth. |
| 11) Sheol and destruction [are] before Jehovah, Surely also the hearts of the sons of men. |
| 12) A scorner loveth not his reprover, Unto the wise he goeth not. |
| 13) A joyful heart maketh glad the face, And by grief of heart is the spirit smitten. |
| 14) The heart of the intelligent seeketh knowledge, And the mouth of fools enjoyeth folly. |
| 15) All the days of the afflicted [are] evil, And gladness of heart [is] a perpetual banquet. |
| 16) Better [is] a little with the fear of Jehovah, Than much treasure, and tumult with it. |
| 17) Better [is] an allowance of green herbs and love there, Than a fatted ox, and hatred with it. |
| 18) A man of fury stirreth up contention, And the slow to anger appeaseth strife. |
| 19) The way of the slothful [is] as a hedge of briers, And the path of the upright is raised up. |
| 20) A wise son rejoiceth a father. And a foolish man is despising his mother. |
| 21) Folly is joy to one lacking heart, And a man of intelligence directeth [his] going. |
| 22) Without counsel [is] the making void of purposes, And in a multitude of counsellors it is established. |
| 23) Joy [is] to a man in the answer of his mouth, And a word in its season -- how good! |
| 24) A path of life [is] on high for the wise, To turn aside from Sheol beneath. |
| 25) The house of the proud Jehovah pulleth down, And He setteth up the border of the widow. |
| 26) An abomination to Jehovah [are] thoughts of wickedness, And pure [are] sayings of pleasantness. |
| 27) A dishonest gainer is troubling his house, And whoso is hating gifts liveth. |
| 28) The heart of the righteous meditateth to answer, And the mouth of the wicked uttereth evil things. |
| 29) Far [is] Jehovah from the wicked, And the prayer of the righteous He heareth. |
| 30) The light of the eyes rejoiceth the heart, A good report maketh fat the bone. |
| 31) An ear that is hearing the reproof of life Doth lodge among the wise. |
| 32) Whoso is refusing instruction is despising his soul, And whoso is hearing reproof Is getting understanding. |
| 33) The fear of Jehovah [is] the instruction of wisdom, And before honour [is] humility! |
