Proverbs 19:12-21 World Messianic Bible (WMB)

12. The king’s wrath is like the roaring of a lion,but his favor is like dew on the grass.

13. A foolish son is the calamity of his father.A wife’s quarrels are a continual dripping.

14. House and riches are an inheritance from fathers,but a prudent wife is from the Lord.

15. Slothfulness casts into a deep sleep.The idle soul shall suffer hunger.

16. He who keeps the commandment keeps his soul,but he who is contemptuous in his ways shall die.

17. He who has pity on the poor lends to the Lord;he will reward him.

18. Discipline your son, for there is hope;don’t be a willing party to his death.

19. A hot-tempered man must pay the penalty,for if you rescue him, you must do it again.

20. Listen to counsel and receive instruction,that you may be wise in your latter end.

21. There are many plans in a man’s heart,but the Lord’s counsel will prevail.
