Proverbs 15:21-30 NIRV

Proverbs 15:21-30

A person who has no sense enjoys doing foolish things.

But a person who has understanding walks straight ahead.

Plans fail without good advice.

But they succeed when there are many advisers.

Joy is found in giving the right answer.

And how good is a word spoken at the right time!

The path of life leads up for those who are wise.

It keeps them from going down to the place of the dead.

The Lord tears down the proud person’s house.

But he keeps the widow’s property safe.

The Lord hates the thoughts of sinful people.

But he considers kind words to be pure.

Those who always want more bring ruin to their households.

But a person who refuses to be paid to lie will live.

The hearts of those who do right think about how they will answer.

But the mouths of those who do wrong pour out evil.

The Lord is far away from those who do wrong.

But he hears the prayers of those who do right.

The cheerful look of a messenger brings joy to your heart.

And good news gives health to your body.
