Proverbs 20
20:1 Wine is a mocker, strong drink is raging:
and whosoever is deceived thereby is not wise.
20:2 The fear of a king is as the roaring of a lion:
whoso provoketh him to anger sinneth against his own soul.
20:3 It is an honour for a man to cease from strife:
but every fool will be meddling.
20:4 The sluggard will not plow by reason of the cold;
therefore shall he beg in harvest, and have nothing.
20:5 Counsel in the heart of man is like deep water;
but a man of understanding will draw it out.
20:6 Most men will proclaim every one his own goodness:
but a faithful man who can find?
20:7 The just man walketh in his integrity:
his children are blessed after him.
20:8 A king that sitteth in the throne of judgment
scattereth away all evil with his eyes.
20:9 Who can say, I have made my heart clean, I am pure from my sin?
20:10 Divers weights, and divers measures,
both of them are alike abomination to the LORD.
20:11 Even a child is known by his doings,
whether his work be pure, and whether it be right.
20:12 The hearing ear, and the seeing eye,
the LORD hath made even both of them.
20:13 Love not sleep, lest thou come to poverty;
open thine eyes, and thou shalt be satisfied with bread.
20:14 It is naught, it is naught, saith the buyer:
but when he is gone his way, then he boasteth.
20:15 There is gold, and a multitude of rubies:
but the lips of knowledge are a precious jewel.
20:16 Take his garment that is surety for a stranger:
and take a pledge of him for a strange woman.
20:17 Bread of deceit is sweet to a man;
but afterwards his mouth shall be filled with gravel.
20:18 Every purpose is established by counsel:
and with good advice make war.
20:19 He that goeth about as a talebearer revealeth secrets:
therefore meddle not with him that flattereth with his lips.
20:20 Whoso curseth his father or his mother,
his lamp shall be put out in obscure darkness.
20:21 An inheritance may be gotten hastily at the beginning;
but the end thereof shall not be blessed.
20:22 Say not thou, I will recompense evil;
but wait on the LORD, and he shall save thee.
20:23 Divers weights are an abomination unto the LORD;
and a false balance is not good.
20:24 Man's goings are of the LORD;
how can a man then understand his own way?
20:25 It is a snare to the man who devoureth that which is holy,
and after vows to make enquiry.
20:26 A wise king scattereth the wicked,
and bringeth the wheel over them.
20:27 The spirit of man is the candle of the LORD,
searching all the inward parts of the belly.
20:28 Mercy and truth preserve the king:
and his throne is upholden by mercy.
20:29 The glory of young men is their strength:
and the beauty of old men is the grey head.
20:30 The blueness of a wound cleanseth away evil:
so do stripes the inward parts of the belly.
