Proverbs 16:22-33

Proverbs 16:22-33

[22] Understanding  is a wellspring  of life  unto him that hath  it: but the instruction  of fools  is folly.  [23] The heart  of the wise  teacheth  his mouth,  and addeth  learning  to his lips.  [24] Pleasant  words  are as an honeycomb,  sweet  to the soul,  and health  to the bones.  [25] There is  a way  that seemeth right  unto  a man,  but the end  thereof are the ways  of death.  [26] He  that laboureth  laboureth  for himself; for his mouth  craveth  it of him. [27] An ungodly  man  diggeth up  evil:  and in his lips  there is as a burning  fire.  [28] A froward  man  soweth  strife:  and a whisperer  separateth  chief friends.  [29] A violent  man  enticeth  his neighbour,  him into the way  that is not good.  [30] He shutteth  his eyes  to devise  froward things:  moving  his lips  evil  to pass.  [31] The hoary head  is a crown  of glory,  if it be found  in the way  of righteousness.  [32] He that is slow  to anger  is better  than the mighty;  and he that ruleth  his spirit  than he that taketh  a city.  [33] The lot  is cast  into the lap;  but the whole disposing  thereof is of the LORD.
