[QUOTE="pradmin, post: 164062, member: 2"] Here is the Proverbs Chapter to Read for Today. Feel free to reply after reading it with any insights or observations. Proverbs, Chapter 20 20:1 Wine is a mocker, strong drink a brawler; And whoever errs by it is not wise. 20:2 The terror of a king is as the roaring of a lion: He who makes him furious sins [against] his own life. 20:3 It is an honor for a man to keep aloof from strife; But every fool will be quarrelling. 20:4 The sluggard will not plow by reason of the winter; Therefore he will beg in harvest, and have nothing. 20:5 Counsel in the heart of man is [like] deep water; But a man of understanding will draw it out. 20:6 Most of man will proclaim every one his own kindness; But a faithful man who can find? 20:7 A righteous man who walks in his integrity, Blessed are his sons after him. 20:8 A king who sits on the throne of judgment Scatters away all evil with his eyes. 20:9 Who can say, I have made my heart clean, I am pure from my sin? 20:10 Diverse weights, and diverse measures, Both of them alike are disgusting to Yahweh. 20:11 Even a child makes himself known by his doings, Whether his work is pure, and whether it is right. 20:12 The hearing ear, and the seeing eye, Yahweh has made even both of them. 20:13 Do not love sleep, or else you will come to poverty; Open your eyes, [and] you will be satisfied with bread. 20:14 It is bad, it is bad, says the buyer; But when he has gone his way, then he boasts. 20:15 There is gold, and abundance of rubies; But the lips of knowledge are a precious jewel. 20:16 Take his garment who is surety for a stranger; And hold him in pledge [who is surety] for foreigners. 20:17 Bread of falsehood is sweet to a man; But afterward his mouth will be filled with gravel. 20:18 Every purpose is established by counsel; And by wise guidance make war. 20:19 He who goes about as a talebearer reveals secrets; Therefore don't company with him who opens his lips wide. 20:20 Whoever curses his father or his mother, His lamp will be put out in the middle of the night. 20:21 An inheritance [may be] obtained hastily at the beginning; But its end will not be blessed. 20:22 Don't say, I will recompense evil: Wait for Yahweh, and he will save you. 20:23 Diverse weights are disgusting to Yahweh; And a false balance is not good. 20:24 A man's goings are of Yahweh; How then can [noble] man understand his way? 20:25 It is a snare to man to rashly say, [it is] holy, And after vows to make inquiry. 20:26 A wise king winnows the wicked, And brings the [threshing]-wheel over them. 20:27 The spirit of man is the lamp of Yahweh, Searching all his innermost parts. 20:28 Kindness and truth preserve the king; And his throne is upheld by kindness. 20:29 The glory of young men is their strength; And the majesty of old men is the gray head. 20:30 Stripes that wound cleanse away evil; And strokes [reach] the innermost parts.
