A liar gives ear to a mischievous tongue. <\/br><strong>5<\/strong> Whoever mocks the poor reproaches his Maker. He who is glad at calamity shall not be unpunished. <\/br><strong>6<\/strong> Children&#8217;s children are the crown of old men; The glory of children are their parents. <\/br><strong>7<\/strong> Arrogant speech isn&#8217;t fitting for a fool, Much less do lying lips fit a prince. <\/br><strong>8<\/strong> A bribe is a precious stone in the eyes of him who gives it; Wherever he turns, he prospers. <\/br><strong>9<\/strong> He who covers an offense promotes love; But he who repeats a matter separates best friends. <\/br><strong>10<\/strong> A rebuke enters deeper into one who has understanding Than a hundred lashes into a fool. <\/br><strong>11<\/strong> An evil man seeks only rebellion; Therefore a cruel messenger shall be sent against him. <\/br><strong>12<\/strong> Let a bear robbed of her cubs meet a man, Rather than a fool in his folly. <\/br><strong>13<\/strong> Whoever rewards evil for good, Evil shall not depart from his house. <\/br><strong>14<\/strong> The beginning of strife is like breaching a dam, Therefore stop contention before quarreling breaks out. <\/br><strong>15<\/strong> He who justifies the wicked, and he who condemns the righteous, Both of them alike are an abomination to Yahweh. <\/br><strong>16<\/strong> Why is there money in the hand of a fool to buy wisdom, Seeing he has no understanding? <\/br><strong>17<\/strong> A friend loves at all times; And a brother is born for adversity. <\/br><strong>18<\/strong> A man void of understanding strikes hands, And becomes collateral in the presence of his neighbor. <\/br><strong>19<\/strong> He who loves disobedience loves strife. One who builds a high gate seeks destruction. <\/br><strong>20<\/strong> One who has a perverse heart doesn&#8217;t find prosperity, And one who has a deceitful tongue falls into trouble. <\/br><strong>21<\/strong> He who becomes the father of a fool grieves. The father of a fool has no joy. <\/br><strong>22<\/strong> A cheerful heart makes good medicine, But a crushed spirit dries up the bones. <\/br><strong>23<\/strong> A wicked man receives a bribe in secret, To pervert the ways of justice. <\/br><strong>24<\/strong> Wisdom is before the face of one who has understanding, But the eyes of a fool wander to the ends of the earth. <\/br><strong>25<\/strong> A foolish son brings grief to his father, And bitterness to her who bore him. <\/br><strong>26<\/strong> Also to punish the righteous is not good, Nor to flog officials for their integrity. <\/br><strong>27<\/strong> He who spares his words has knowledge. He who is even tempered is a man of understanding. <\/br><strong>28<\/strong> Even a fool, when he keeps silent, is counted wise. When he shuts his lips, he is thought to be discerning. <\/br><script type=\"text\/javascript\">\n    google_ad_client = \"ca-pub-4647651612525789\";\n    google_ad_slot = \"6844414800\";\n
