About Proverbs

Practical wisdom for daily living, largely from King Solomon.

Old Testament • Book #20

Do not be among ones drinking too much wine, or those who gorge themselves on meat:

for the drunkard and the glutton shall become poor; and drowsiness clothes them in rags.

Buy the truth, and do not sell it. Get wisdom, discipline, and understanding.

The father of the righteous has great joy. Whoever fathers a wise child delights in him.
