About Proverbs

Practical wisdom for daily living, largely from King Solomon.

Old Testament • Book #20

A high look, and a proud heart, the lamp of the wicked, is sin.

The plans of the diligent surely lead to profit; and everyone who is hasty surely rushes to poverty....

The violence of the wicked will drive them away, because they refuse to do what is right.

The way of the guilty is devious, but the conduct of the innocent is upright.
