Proverbs 15:3-13 Darby Translation 1890 (DARBY)

3. The eyes of Jehovah are in every place, beholding the evil and the good.

4. Gentleness of tongue is a tree of life; but crookedness therein is a breaking of the spirit.

5. A fool despiseth his father's instruction; but he that regardeth reproof becometh prudent.

6. In the house of a righteous man is much treasure; but in the revenue of a wicked man is disturbance.

7. The lips of the wise disperse knowledge, but not so the heart of the foolish.

8. The sacrifice of the wicked is an abomination to Jehovah; but the prayer of the upright is his delight.

9. The way of a wicked man is an abomination to Jehovah; but him that pursueth righteousness he loveth.

10. Grievous correction is for him that forsaketh the path; he that hateth reproof shall die.

11. Sheol and destruction are before Jehovah; how much more then the hearts of the children of men!

12. A scorner loveth not one that reproveth him; he will not go unto the wise.

13. A joyful heart maketh a cheerful countenance; but by sorrow of heart the spirit is broken.
