Proverbs Commentary

For surely there is an end; and thine expectation shall not be cut off.

Let not thine heart envy sinners: but be thou in the fear of the LORD all the day long.

Yea, my reins shall rejoice, when thy lips speak right things.

For it is a pleasant thing if thou keep them within thee; they shall withal be fitted in thy lips.

Bow down thine ear, and hear the words of the wise, and apply thine heart unto my knowledge.

He that oppresseth the poor to increase his riches, and he that giveth to the rich, shall surely come to want.

The wicked shall be a ransom for the righteous, and the transgressor for the upright.

He that loveth pleasure shall be a poor man: he that loveth wine and oil shall not be rich.

The man that wandereth out of the way of understanding shall remain in the congregation of the dead.

Every purpose is established by counsel: and with good advice make war.
