Proverbs 19:1-11 It is dangerous and sinful to rush into the unknown. ³ A man may ruin his chance by his own foolishness and then blame it on the Lord!
4 A weathly man has many “friends”; the poor man has none left. ⁵ Punish false witnesses. Track down liars. ⁶ Many beg favors from a man who is generous; everyone is his friend!
7 A poor man’s own brothers turn away from him in embareassment; how much more his friends! He calls after them, but they are gone.
8 He loves wisdom loves his own best interest and will be a success. ⁹ A false witness shall be punished and a liar shall be caught. ¹⁰ It doesn’t seem right for a fool to succeed or have a slave to rule over princes!
11 A wise man restrains his anger and overlooks insults. This is his credit. TLBV
