Proverbs 19:7-14

⁷All the brethren of the poor have hated him, Surely also his friends have been far from him, He is pursuing words — they are not!

⁸Whoso is getting heart is loving his soul, He is keeping understanding to find good.

⁹A false witness is not acquitted, And whoso breatheth out lies perisheth.

¹⁰Luxury is not comely for a fool, Much less for a servant to rule among princes.

¹¹The wisdom of a man hath deferred his anger, And his glory is to pass over transgression.

¹²The wrath of a king is a growl as of a young lion, And as dew on the herb his good-will.

¹³A calamity to his father is a foolish son, And the contentions of a wife are a continual dropping.

¹⁴House and wealth are the inheritance of fathers, And from Jehovah is an understanding wife.
