desire, And rageth against all sound wisdom. <\/br><strong>2<\/strong> A fool hath no delight in understanding, But only that his heart may reveal itself. <\/br><strong>3<\/strong> When the wicked cometh, there cometh also contempt, And with ignominy `cometh&#8217; reproach. <\/br><strong>4<\/strong> The words of a man&#8217;s mouth are `as&#8217; deep waters; The wellspring of wisdom is `as&#8217; a flowing brook. <\/br><strong>5<\/strong> To respect the person of the wicked is not good, `Nor&#8217; to turn aside the righteous in judgment. <\/br><strong>6<\/strong> A fool&#8217;s lips enter into contention, And his mouth calleth for stripes. <\/br><strong>7<\/strong> A fool&#8217;s mouth is his destruction, And his lips are the snare of his soul. <\/br><strong>8<\/strong> The words of a whisperer are as dainty morsels, And they go down into the innermost parts. <\/br><strong>9<\/strong> He also that is slack in his work Is brother to him that is a destroyer. <\/br><strong>10<\/strong> The name of Jehovah is a strong tower; The righteous runneth into it, and is safe. <\/br><strong>11<\/strong> The rich man&#8217;s wealth is his strong city, And as a high wall in his own imagination. <\/br><strong>12<\/strong> Before destruction the heart of man is haughty; And before honor `goeth&#8217; humility. <\/br><strong>13<\/strong> He that giveth answer before he heareth, It is folly and shame unto him. <\/br><strong>14<\/strong> The spirit of a man will sustain his infirmity; But a broken spirit who can bear? <\/br><strong>15<\/strong> The heart of the prudent getteth knowledge; And the ear of the wise seeketh knowledge. <\/br><strong>16<\/strong> A man&#8217;s gift maketh room for him, And bringeth him before great men. <\/br><strong>17<\/strong> He that pleadeth his cause first `seemeth&#8217; just; But his neighbor cometh and searcheth him out. <\/br><strong>18<\/strong> The lot causeth contentions to cease, And parteth between the mighty. <\/br><strong>19<\/strong> A brother offended `is harder to be won&#8217; than a strong city; And `such&#8217; contentions are like the bars of a castle. <\/br><strong>20<\/strong> A man&#8217;s belly shall be filled with the fruit of his mouth; With the increase of his lips shall he be satisfied. <\/br><strong>21<\/strong> Death and life are in the power of the tongue; And they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof. <\/br><strong>22<\/strong> Whoso findeth a wife findeth a good thing, And obtaineth favor of Jehovah. <\/br><strong>23<\/strong> The poor useth entreaties; But the rich answereth roughly. <\/br><strong>24<\/strong> He that maketh many friends `doeth it&#8217; to his own destruction; But there is a friend that sticketh closer than a brother. <\/br><script type=\"text\/javascript\">\n    google_ad_client = \"ca-pub-4647651612525789\";\n    google_ad_slot = \"6844414800\";\n    google_ad_width = 320;\n    google_ad_height = 100;\n<\/script><br \/>\n<!-- a2g_320x100_more_for_mobile --><br \/>\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\"\nsrc=\"\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/show_ads.js\">\n<\/script><script async src=\"\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js\"><\/script><br \/>\n<!-- a2g_responsive_link_ads --><br \/>\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\n     style=\"display:block\"\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-4647651612525789\"\n     data-ad-slot=\"2949445208\"\n     data-ad-format=\"link\"><\/ins><br \/>\n<script>\n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script>If you know someone that needs to give their heart to Jesus, <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.accesstogod.com\/index.php\/2014\/05\/26\/bill-winstons-prayer-of-salvation-the-sinners-prayer\/\" title=\"great video of the Salvation Prayer\" target=\"_blank\">here&#8217;s a great video of the Salvation Prayer (Sinner&#8217;s Prayer).<\/a><\/strong><\/br><\/br>If you (or anyone you know) needs prayer, <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.accesstogod.com\/index.php\/24-hour-toll-free-prayer-lines\/\" target=\"_blank\">here&#8217;s a list of toll free 24 hour prayer lines.<\/a><\/strong> <\/br><br \/><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.accesstogod.com\/index.php\/salvation\/faqs-about-salvation\/\" target=\"_blank\">Here&#8217;s a list of frequently asked questions about Salvation.<\/a><\/strong> <br \/><\/br>To access different versions of the Bible, click the following links: <br \/> <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.accesstogod.com\/?s=king+james+version\" target=\"_blank\">King James Version (KJV), <\/a><\/strong> <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.accesstogod.com\/?s=American+Standard+Version\" target=\"_blank\">American Standard Version (ASV), <\/a><\/strong><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.accesstogod.com\/?s=World+English+Bible\" target=\"_blank\">World English Bible (WEB), <\/a><\/strong><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.accesstogod.com\/?s=Darby+English+Bible\" target=\"_blank\">Darby English Bible (DARBY), <\/a><\/strong><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.accesstogod.com\/?s=Bible+in+Basic+English\" target=\"_blank\">Bible in Basic English (BBE), <\/a><\/strong><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.accesstogod.com\/?s=Webster+Bible\" target=\"_blank\">Webster&#8217;s Bible (WBT), <\/a><\/strong><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.accesstogod.com\/?s=Young+Literal+Translation\" target=\"_blank\">Young&#8217;s Literal Translation (YLT)<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>1 He that separateth himself seeketh `his own&#8217;
