Proverbs 24:3-13 International Children’s Bible (ICB)

3. It takes wisdom to have a good family.It takes understanding to make it strong.

4. It takes knowledge to fill a homewith rare and beautiful treasures.

5. A wise man has great power.And a man who has knowledge is very strong.

6. So you need the advice of others when you go to war.If you have many people to give advice, you will win.

7. A foolish person cannot understand wisdom.He has nothing to say in court.

8. Whoever makes evil planswill be known as a troublemaker.

9. Making foolish plans is sinful.And making fun of others is hateful.

10. If you give up when trouble comes,it shows that you have very little strength.

11. Save those who are being led to their death.Rescue those who are about to be killed.

12. You may say, “We don’t know anything about this.”But God knows what is in your mind, and he will notice.He is watching you, and he will know.He will pay each person back for what he has done.

13. My child, eat honey because it is good.Honey from the honeycomb tastes sweet.
