15:1 A
soft
answere
turneth
away
wrath:
but
grieuous
words
stirre
vp
anger.
15:2 The
tongue
of
the
wise,
vseth
knowledge
aright:
but
the
mouth
of
fooles,
powreth
out
foolishnes.
15:3 The
eyes
of
the
Lord
are
in
euery
place,
beholding
the
euill
&
the
good.
15:4 A
wholesome
tongue
is
a
tree
of
life:
but
peruersnesse
therein
is
a
breach
in
the
spirit.
15:5 A
foole
despiseth
his
fathers
instruction:
but
hee
that
regardeth
reproofe,
is
prudent.
15:6 In
the
house
of
the
righteous
is
much
treasure:
but
in
the
reuenues
of
the
wicked
is
trouble.
15:7 The
lippes
of
the
wise
disperse
knowledge:
but
the
heart
of
the
foolish,
doeth
not
so.
15:8 The
sacrifice
of
the
wicked
is
an
abomination
to
the
Lord:
but
the
prayer
of
the
vpright
is
his
delight.
15:9 The
way
of
the
wicked
is
an
abomination
vnto
the
Lord:
but
he
loueth
him
that
followeth
after
righteousnes.
15:10 Correction
is
grieuous
vnto
him
that
forsaketh
the
way:
and
he
that
hateth
reproofe,
shall
die.
15:11 Hell
and
destruction
are
before
the
Lord:
how
much
more
then,
the
hearts
of
the
children
of
men
15:12 A
scorner
loueth
not
one
that
reproueth
him:
neither
will
he
goe
vnto
the
wise.
15:13 A
merry
heart
maketh
a
cheerefull
countenance:
but
by
sorrow
of
the
heart,
the
spirit
is
broken.
15:14 The
heart
of
him
that
hath
vnderstanding,
seeketh
knowledge:
but
the
mouth
of
fooles
feedeth
on
foolishnesse.
15:15 All
the
dayes
of
the
afflicted
are
euill:
but
he
that
is
of
a
merry
heart,
hath
a
continuall
feast.
15:16 Better
is
little
with
the
feare
of
the
Lord,
then
great
treasure,
and
trouble
therewith.
15:17 Better
is
a
dinner
of
herbes
where
loue
is,
then
a
stalled
oxe,
and
hatred
therewith.
15:18 A
wrathfull
man
stirreth
vp
strife:
but
he
that
is
slow
to
anger,
appeaseth
strife.
15:19 The
way
of
the
slouthfull
man
is
as
an
hedge
of
thornes:
but
the
way
of
the
righteous
is
made
plaine.
15:20 A
wise
sonne
maketh
a
glad
father:
but
a
foolish
man
despiseth
his
mother.
15:21 Folly
is
ioy
to
him
that
is
destitute
of
wisedome:
but
a
man
of
vnderstanding
walketh
vprightly.
15:22 Without
counsell,
purposes
are
disappointed:
but
in
the
multitude
of
counsellours
they
are
established.
15:23 A
man
hath
ioy
by
the
answere
of
his
mouth:
and
a
word
spoken
in
due
season,
how
good
is
it
15:24 The
way
of
life
is
aboue
to
the
wise,
that
he
may
depart
from
hell
beneath.
15:25 The
Lord
will
destroy
the
house
of
the
proud:
but
he
will
establish
the
border
of
the
widow.
15:26 The
thoughts
of
the
wicked
are
an
abomination
to
the
Lord:
but
the
wordes
of
the
pure,
are
pleasant
words.
15:27 Hee
that
is
greedy
of
gaine,
troubleth
his
owne
house:
but
he
that
hateth
gifts,
shall
liue.
15:28 The
heart
of
the
righteous
studieth
to
answere:
but
the
mouth
of
the
wicked,
powreth
out
euil
things.
15:29 The
Lord
is
farre
from
the
wicked:
but
hee
heareth
the
prayer
of
the
righteous.
15:30 The
light
of
the
eyes
reioyceth
the
heart:
and
a
good
report
maketh
the
bones
fat.
15:31 The
eare
that
heareth
the
reproofe
of
life,
abideth
among
the
wise.
15:32 He
that
refuseth
instruction,
despiseth
his
owne
soule:
but
he
that
heareth
reproofe,
getteth
vnderstanding.
15:33 The
feare
of
the
Lord
is
the
instruction
of
wisedome;
and
before
honour
is
humilitie.
