PROVERBS 15:19-23

¹⁹The way of the sluggard is as an hedge of thorns: but the path of the upright is made an highway.

²⁰A wise son maketh a glad father: but a foolish man despiseth his mother.

²¹Folly is joy to him that is void of wisdom: but a man of understanding maketh straight his going.

²²Where there is no counsel, purposes are disappointed: but in the multitude of counsellors they are established.

²³A man hath joy in the answer of his mouth: and a word in due season, how good is it!
