Proverbs 21:10-19

Justice, Consequences, and Wealth

Proverbs 21:10-19
10
The soul of the wicked desireth evil, he will not have pity on his neighbour.
11
When a pestilent man is punished, the little one will be wiser: and if he follow the wise, he will receive knowledge.
12
The just considereth seriously the house of the wicked, that he may withdraw the wicked from evil.
13
He that stoppeth his ear against the cry of the poor, shall also cry himself, and shall not be heard.
14
A secret present quencheth anger: and a gift in the bosom, the greatest wrath.
15
It is joy to the just to do judgment: and dread to them that work iniquity.
16
A man that shall wander out of the way of doctrine, shall abide in the company of the giants.
17
He that loveth good cheer, shall be in want: he that loveth wine, and fat things, shall not be rich.
18
The wicked is delivered up for the just: and the unjust for the righteous.
19
It is better to dwell in a wilderness, than with a quarrelsome and passionate woman.
