    Proverbs 18
    • 1   He that hath a mind to depart from a friend, seeketh occasions: he shall ever be subject to reproach.
    • 2   A fool receiveth not the words of prudence: unless thou say those things which are in his heart.
    • 3   The wicked man, when he is come into the depths of sins, contemneth: but ignominy and reproach follow him.
    • 4   Words from the mouth of a man are as deep water: and the fountain of wisdom is an overflowing stream.
    • 5   It is not good to accept the person of the wicked, to decline from the truth of judgment.
    • 6   The lips of a fool intermeddle with strife: and his mouth provoketh quarrels.
    • 7   The mouth of a fool is his destruction: and his lips are the ruin of his soul.
    • 8   The words of the double tongued are as if they were harmless: and they reach even to the inner parts of the bowels. Fear casteth down the slothful: and the souls of the effeminate shall be hungry.
    • 9   He that is loose and slack in his work, is the brother of him that wasteth his own works.
    • 10   The name of the Lord is a strong tower: the just runneth to it, and shall be exalted.
    • 11   The substance of the rich man is the city of his strength, and as a strong wall compassing him about.
    • 12   Before destruction, the heart of a man is exalted: and before he be glorified, it is humbled.
    • 13   He that answereth before he heareth, sheweth himself to be a fool, and worthy of confusion.
    • 14   The spirit of a man upholdeth his infirmity: but a spirit that is easily angered, who can bear?
    • 15   A wise heart shall acquire knowledge: and the ear of the wise seeketh instruction.
    • 16   A man's gift enlargeth his way, and maketh him room before princes.
    • 17   The just is first accuser of himself: his friend cometh, and shall search him.
    • 18   The lot suppresseth contentions, and determineth even between the mighty.
    • 19   A brother that is helped by his brother, is like a strong city: and judgments are like the bars of cities.
    • 20   Of the fruit of a man's mouth shall his belly be satisfied: and the offspring of his lips shall fill him.
    • 21   Death and life are in the power of the tongue: they that love it, shall eat the fruits thereof.
    • 22   He that hath found a good wife, hath found a good thing, and shall receive a pleasure from the Lord. He that driveth away a good wife, driveth away a good thing: but he that keepeth an adulteress, is foolish and wicked.
    • 23   The poor will speak with supplications, and the rich will speak roughly.
    • 24   A man amiable in society, shall be more friendly than a brother.
