The book of Proverbs is a profound and practical collection of sayings, teachings, and wisdom literature attributed mainly to King Solomon. It offers invaluable guidance and insights into various aspects of life, virtue, and morality. Through its poetic and metaphorical language, Proverbs invites the reader to seek wisdom and cultivate a deep and personal relationship with God.
The book is divided into thirty-one chapters, with each chapter containing a series of concise, thought-provoking statements known as proverbs. These proverbs cover a wide range of topics, including wisdom, righteousness, family life, work ethic, friendships, humility, discipline, and the fear of the Lord. Through them, readers are encouraged to seek understanding, discernment, and integrity in all aspects of life.
One of the central themes in Proverbs is the pursuit of wisdom. The wise person is portrayed as someone who fears the Lord, acknowledges their dependence on Him, and seeks His guidance in all their decisions. Wisdom is seen as a precious treasure that brings joy, success, and blessings. The book highlights the importance of humility and the necessity of trusting God's wisdom rather than relying on one's own understanding.
The book also emphasizes the importance of moral living and warns against the dangers of evil and folly. It promotes virtues such as honesty, generosity, kindness, and forgiveness. Proverbs portrays the consequences of immoral actions and highlights the importance of self-control, discipline, and righteous living.
Ultimately, Proverbs guides readers to grow in wisdom, live virtuously, and honor God in all that they do. By seeking wisdom, fearing the Lord, and living according to His precepts, individuals can experience the fullness of life and the blessings that come from a righteous and godly life.

in the fold of the Garment the lot is thrown but from Yahweh comes the
46:18
decision Proverbs chapter 17 better a mouthful of dry bread with peace than a
46:25
house filled with quarrelsome sacrifices a shrewd servant comes off better than

reproof makes more impression on a person of understanding than a 100 Strokes on a fool the wicked person

47:32
Cubs than on a fool in his folly disaster will never be far from the house of one who returns evil for good
47:39
as well unleash a flood as start a dispute desist before the quarrel breaks out to absolve the guilty and condemn

the upright both alike are abhorent to Yahweh what good is money in the hand of
47:53
a fool to buy wisdom with it the desire is not there a friend is a friend at all

times it is for adversity that a brother is born whoever offers guarantees lack
48:06
sense and goes shy for a neighbor the double dealer loves sin the proud courts

48:17
into misery he who fathers a stupid child does so to his sorrow the father
48:23
of a fool knows no joy a glad heart is excellent medicine a depressed Spirit
48:29
wastes the bones away under cover of his cloak a bad man takes a gift to pervert
48:34
the course of Justice the intelligent has wisdom there before him but the eyes
48:40
of a fool range to the ends of the Earth a foolish child is a father's sorrow and
48:45
the grief of her who gave the child birth to find the upright is indeed a crime to strike the noble is an
48:53
injustice whoever can control the tongue knows what knowledge is someone of
48:58
understanding keeps a cool temper if the fool holds his tongue he may pass for wise if he seals his lips he may pass

with contempt dishonor deep Waters such are human words a gushing stream the
49:39
utterance of wisdom it is not good to show partiality for the wicked and so to
49:44
deprive the upright when giving judgment the lips of a fool go to the Law Courts
49:49
with a mouth that pleads for a beating the mouth of the fool Works its owner's ruin the lips of a fool are a snare for
49:56
their owner's life the words of a slanderer are tasty morsels that go right down into the belly whoever is
50:03
idle at work is blood brother to the Destroyer the name of Yahweh is a strong
50:08
tower the upright runs to it and is secure the wealth of the rich forms a
50:14
stronghold a high wall as the rich supposes the human heart is hoty until
50:20
destruction comes before there can be glory there must be humility to retort
50:25
without first listening is both foolish and embarrassing sickness the human Spirit can endure but when the spirit is
50:33
broken who can bear this the heart of the intelligent acquires learning the
50:39
ears of the wise search for knowledge a present will open all doors and win
50:44
access to the great the first to plead is a judge to be upright until the next
50:49
comes and cross-examines him the lot puts an end to disputes and decides between men of power a brother brother
50:56
offended is worse than a fortified City and quarrels are like the locks of a keep from the fruit of the mouth is a
51:03
stomach filled it is the yield of the lips that gives contentment death and
51:09
life are in the gift of the tongue those who indulge it must eat the fruit it yields he who finds a wife finds
51:16
happiness receiving a mark of favor from Yahweh the language of the poor is in
51:21
treaty the answer of the rich harshness there are friends who point the way to ruin others are closer than a
51:34
brother Proverbs Chapter 19 better the poor living an honest life than the
51:40
Adept at Double talk who is a fool where knowledge is wanting Zeal is not good
51:47
whoever goes too quickly stumbles Folly leads conduct astray yet it is against
51:53
Yahweh that the heart rages wealth multip lies friends but the one friend
51:58

a giver of gifts everyone is friend the poor man's brothers hate him everyone
52:16
his friends how much the more do these desert him he goes in search of words
52:22
but there are none to be had whoever acquires sense wins profit from it
52:27
whoever Treasures understanding finds happiness the false witness will not go
52:33
unpunished whoever utters lies will be destroyed it is not fitting for a fool
52:38
to live in luxury still less for a slave to govern princes Good Sense makes for

fine linen and purple her husband is respected at the city Gates taking his
1:30:38
seat among the Elders of the land she weaves materials and sells them she
1:30:43
supplies the merchant with sashes she is clothed in strength and dignity she can
1:30:49
laugh at the day to come when she opens her mouth she does so wisely on her
1:30:55
tongue is kindly instruction she keeps good watch on the conduct of her household no bread of idleness for her
1:31:03
her children stand up and Proclaim her blessed her husband too sings her Praises many women have done admirable
1:31:11
things but you surpass them all charm is deceitful and Beauty empty the woman who
1:31:18
fears Yahweh is the one to praise give her a share in what her hands have worked for and let her Works tell her
1:31:25
Praises at the city Gates
1:31:33
