About Proverbs

Practical wisdom for daily living, largely from King Solomon.

Old Testament • Book #20

An evil man is snared by his sin, but the righteous can sing and be glad.

The righteous care about justice for the poor. The wicked aren't concerned about knowledge.

If a wise man goes to court with a foolish man, the fool rages or scoffs, and there is no peace.

The bloodthirsty hate a man of integrity; and they seek the life of the upright.
