Proverbs 15:11-20
Death and the Grave lie open in front of the Lord.
So human hearts certainly lie open to him!
People who make fun of others don’t like to be corrected.
So they stay away from wise people.
A happy heart makes a face look cheerful.
But a sad heart produces a broken spirit.
A heart that understands what is right looks for knowledge.
But the mouths of foolish people feed on what is foolish.
All the days of those who are crushed are filled with pain and suffering.
But a cheerful heart enjoys a good time that never ends.
It is better to have respect for the Lord and have little
than to be rich and have trouble.
A few vegetables where there is love
are better than the finest meat where there is hatred.
A person with a bad temper stirs up conflict.
But a person who is patient calms things down.
The way of people who don’t want to work is blocked with thorns.
But the path of honest people is a wide road.
A wise son makes his father glad.
But a foolish son hates his mother.
