Verse of the Day-

Proverbs 15:1-17

A soft answer turns away wrath,
but a harsh word stirs up anger.
The tongues of the wise commends knowledge,
but the mouths of fools pour out folly.
The eyes of Yahweh are in every place,
keeping watching on the evil and the good.
A gentle tongue is a tree of life,
but perverseness in it breaks the spirit.
A fool despises his father's instruction,
but whoever heeds reproof is prudent.
In the house of the righteous there is much treasure,
but trouble befalls the income of the wicked.
The lips of the wise spread knowledge,
not so the hearts of fools.
The sacrifice of the wicked is an abomination to Yahweh,
but the prayer of the upright is acceptable to him.
The way of the wicked is an abomination to Yahweh,
but He loves him who pursues righteousness.
There is severe discipline to him who forsakes the way;
whoever hates reproof will die.
Sheol and Abaddon lie open before Yahweh;
how much more the hearts of the children of man!
A scoffer does not like to be reproved;
he will not go to the wise.
A glad heart makes a cheerful face,
but by sorrow of heart the spirit is crushed.
The heart of him who has understanding seeks knowledge,
but the mouths of fools feed on folly.
All the days of the afflicted are evil,
but the cheerful of heart has a continual feast.
Better is a little with the fear of Yahweh
than great treasure and trouble with it.
Better is a dinner of herbs where love is
than a fattened ox and hatred with it.
