Proverbs 19:3-11

³The foolishness of man perverteth his way; and his heart fretteth against the LORD.

⁴Wealth addeth many friends; but as for the poor, his friend separateth himself from him.

⁵A false witness shall not be unpunished; and he that breatheth forth lies shall not escape.

⁶Many will entreat the favour of the liberal man; and every man is a friend to him that giveth gifts.

⁷All the brethren of the poor do hate him; how much more do his friends go far from him! He that pursueth words, they turn against him.

⁸He that getteth wisdom loveth his own soul; he that keepeth understanding shall find good.

⁹A false witness shall not be unpunished; and he that breatheth forth lies shall perish.

¹⁰Luxury is not seemly for a fool; much less for a servant to have rule over princes.

¹¹It is the discretion of a man to be slow to anger, and it is his glory to pass over a transgression.
