Proverbs 19:20-25 Kindness makes a man attractive. And it is better to be poor than be dishonest.
Reverence for God gives life, happiness, and protection from harm. ²⁴ Some men are so lazy they won’t even feed themselves.
²⁵ Punish a mocker and others will learn from his example. Reprove a wise man and he will be the wiser. Amen.
