The Proverbs Of Solomon 19:3-11 Jubilee Bible (JUB)

3. The foolishness of man perverts his way, and his heart is wroth against the Lord.

4. Wealth makes many friends, but the poor is separated from his neighbour.

5. A false witness shall not go unpunished, and he that speaks lies shall not escape.

6. Many will intreat the favour of the prince, but every man is a friend to him that gives.

7. All the brethren of the poor hate him; how much more shall his friends separate themselves from him? He shall seek their friendship and not find it.

8. He that gets wisdom loves his own soul; he keeps intelligence that he might find that which is good.

9. The false witness shall not go unpunished, and he that speaks lies shall perish.

10. Delight is not suitable for a fool; much less for a slave to have rule over princes.

11. The discretion of a man defers his anger, and it is his glory to pass over a transgression.
