feasting with strife. <\/br><strong>2<\/strong> A servant that dealeth wisely shall have rule over a son that causeth shame, And shall have part in the inheritance among the brethren. <\/br><strong>3<\/strong> The refining pot is for silver, and the furnace for gold; But Jehovah trieth the hearts. <\/br><strong>4<\/strong> An evil-doer giveth heed to wicked lips; `And&#8217; a liar giveth ear to a mischievous tongue. <\/br><strong>5<\/strong> Whoso mocketh the poor reproacheth his Maker; `And&#8217; he that is glad at calamity shall not be unpunished. <\/br><strong>6<\/strong> Children&#8217;s children are the crown of old men; And the glory of children are their fathers. <\/br><strong>7<\/strong> Excellent speech becometh not a fool; Much less do lying lips a prince. <\/br><strong>8<\/strong> A bribe is `as&#8217; a precious stone in the eyes of him that hath it; Whithersoever it turneth, it prospereth. <\/br><strong>9<\/strong> He that covereth a transgression seeketh love; But he that harpeth on a matter separateth chief friends. <\/br><strong>10<\/strong> A rebuke entereth deeper into one that hath understanding Than a hundred stripes into a fool. <\/br><strong>11<\/strong> An evil man seeketh only rebellion; Therefore a cruel messenger shall be sent against him. <\/br><strong>12<\/strong> Let a bear robbed of her whelps meet a man, Rather than a fool in his folly. <\/br><strong>13<\/strong> Whoso rewardeth evil for good, Evil shall not depart from his house. <\/br><strong>14<\/strong> The beginning of strife is `as&#8217; when one letteth out water: Therefore leave off contention, before there is quarrelling. <\/br><strong>15<\/strong> He that justifieth the wicked, and he that condemneth the righteous, Both of them alike are an abomination to Jehovah. <\/br><strong>16<\/strong> Wherefore is there a price in the hand of a fool to buy wisdom, Seeing he hath no understanding? <\/br><strong>17<\/strong> A friend loveth at all times; And a brother is born for adversity. <\/br><strong>18<\/strong> A man void of understanding striketh hands, And becometh surety in the presence of his neighbor. <\/br><strong>19<\/strong> He loveth transgression that loveth strife: He that raiseth high his gate seeketh destruction. <\/br><strong>20<\/strong> He that hath a wayward heart findeth no good; And he that hath a perverse tongue falleth into mischief. <\/br><strong>21<\/strong> He that begetteth a fool `doeth it&#8217; to his sorrow; And the father of a fool hath no joy. <\/br><strong>22<\/strong> A cheerful heart is a good medicine; But a broken spirit drieth up the bones. <\/br><strong>23<\/strong> A wicked man receiveth a bribe out of the bosom, To pervert the ways of justice. <\/br><strong>24<\/strong> Wisdom is before the face of him that hath understanding; But the eyes of a fool are in the ends of the earth. <\/br><strong>25<\/strong> A foolish son is a grief to his father, And bitterness to her that bare him. <\/br><strong>26<\/strong> Also to punish the righteous is not good, `Nor&#8217; to smite the noble for `their&#8217; uprightness. <\/br><strong>27<\/strong> He that spareth his words hath knowledge; And he that is of a cool spirit is a man of understanding. <\/br><strong>28<\/strong> Even a fool, when he holdeth his peace, is counted wise; When he shutteth his lips, he is `esteemed as&#8217; prudent. <\/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
