Proverbs -- 17

{1} Better is a dry morsel, and quietness therewith, than an house full of sacrifices with strife.
{2} A wise servant shall have rule over a son that causeth shame, and shall have part of the inheritance among the brethren.
{3} The fining pot is for silver, and the furnace for gold: but the LORD trieth the hearts.
{4} A wicked doer giveth heed to false lips; and a liar giveth ear to a naughty tongue.
{5} Whoso mocketh the poor reproacheth his Maker: and he that is glad at calamities shall not be unpunished.
{6} Children's children are the crown of old men; and the glory of children are their fathers.
{7} Excellent speech becometh not a fool: much less do lying lips a prince.
{8} A gift is as a precious stone in the eyes of him that hath it: whithersoever it turneth, it prospereth.
{9} He that covereth a transgression seeketh love; but he that repeateth a matter separateth very friends.
{10} A reproof entereth more into a wise man than an hundred stripes into a fool.
{11} An evil man seeketh only rebellion: therefore a cruel messenger shall be sent against him.
{12} Let a bear robbed of her whelps meet a man, rather than a fool in his folly.
{13} Whoso rewardeth evil for good, evil shall not depart from his house.
{14} The beginning of strife is as when one letteth out water: therefore leave off contention, before it be meddled with.
{15} He that justifieth the wicked, and he that condemneth the just, even they both are abomination to the LORD.
{16} Wherefore is there a price in the hand of a fool to get wisdom, seeing he hath no heart to it?
{17} A friend loveth at all times, and a brother is born for adversity.
{18} A man void of understanding striketh hands, and becometh surety in the presence of his friend.
{19} He loveth transgression that loveth strife: and he that exalteth his gate seeketh destruction.
{20} He that hath a froward heart findeth no good: and he that hath a perverse tongue falleth into mischief.
{21} He that begetteth a fool doeth it to his sorrow: and the father of a fool hath no joy.
{22} A merry heart doeth good like a medicine: but a broken spirit drieth the bones.
{23} A wicked man taketh a gift out of the bosom to pervert the ways of judgment.
{24} Wisdom is before him that hath understanding; but the eyes of a fool are in the ends of the earth.
{25} A foolish son is a grief to his father, and bitterness to her that bare him.
{26} Also to punish the just is not good, nor to strike princes for equity.
{27} He that hath knowledge spareth his words: and a man of understanding is of an excellent spirit.
{28} Even a fool, when he holdeth his peace, is counted wise: and he that shutteth his lips is esteemed a man of understanding.

Proverbs -- 18

{1} Through desire a man, having separated himself, seeketh and intermeddleth with all wisdom.
{2} A fool hath no delight in understanding, but that his heart may discover itself.
{3} When the wicked cometh, then cometh also contempt, and with ignominy reproach.
{4} The words of a man's mouth are as deep waters, and the wellspring of wisdom as a flowing brook.
{5} It is not good to accept the person of the wicked, to overthrow the righteous in judgment.
{6} A fool's lips enter into contention, and his mouth calleth for strokes.
{7} A fool's mouth is his destruction, and his lips are the snare of his soul.
{8} The words of a talebearer are as wounds, and they go down into the innermost parts of the belly.
{9} He also that is slothful in his work is brother to him that is a great waster.
{10} The name of the LORD is a strong tower: the righteous runneth into it, and is safe.
{11} The rich man's wealth is his strong city, and as an high wall in his own conceit.
{12} Before destruction the heart of man is haughty, and before honour is humility.
{13} He that answereth a matter before he heareth it, it is folly and shame unto him.
{14} The spirit of a man will sustain his infirmity; but a wounded spirit who can bear?
{15} The heart of the prudent getteth knowledge; and the ear of the wise seeketh knowledge.
{16} A man's gift maketh room for him, and bringeth him before great men.
{17} He that is first in his own cause seemeth just; but his neighbour cometh and searcheth him.
{18} The lot causeth contentions to cease, and parteth between the mighty.
{19} A brother offended is harder to be won than a strong city: and their contentions are like the bars of a castle.
{20} A man's belly shall be satisfied with the fruit of his mouth; and with the increase of his lips shall he be filled.
{21} Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof.
{22} Whoso findeth a wife findeth a good thing, and obtaineth favour of the LORD.
{23} The poor useth intreaties; but the rich answereth roughly.
{24} A man that hath friends must shew himself friendly: and there is a friend that sticketh closer than a brother.

Second Corinthians -- 2

{1} But I determined this with myself, that I would not come again to you in heaviness.
{2} For if I make you sorry, who is he then that maketh me glad, but the same which is made sorry by me?
{3} And I wrote this same unto you, lest, when I came, I should have sorrow from them of whom I ought to rejoice; having confidence in you all, that my joy is the joy of you all.
{4} For out of much affliction and anguish of heart I wrote unto you with many tears; not that ye should be grieved, but that ye might know the love which I have more abundantly unto you.
{5} But if any have caused grief, he hath not grieved me, but in part: that I may not overcharge you all.
{6} Sufficient to such a man is this punishment, which was inflicted of many.
{7} So that contrariwise ye ought rather to forgive him, and comfort him, lest perhaps such a one should be swallowed up with overmuch sorrow.
{8} Wherefore I beseech you that ye would confirm your love toward him.
{9} For to this end also did I write, that I might know the proof of you, whether ye be obedient in all things.
{10} To whom ye forgive any thing, I forgive also: for if I forgave any thing, to whom I forgave it, for your sakes forgave I it in the person of Christ;
{11} Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices.
{12} Furthermore, when I came to Troas to preach Christ's gospel, and a door was opened unto me of the Lord,
{13} I had no rest in my spirit, because I found not Titus my brother: but taking my leave of them, I went from thence into Macedonia.
{14} Now thanks be unto God, which always causeth us to triumph in Christ, and maketh manifest the savour of his knowledge by us in every place.
{15} For we are unto God a sweet savour of Christ, in them that are saved, and in them that perish:
{16} To the one we are the savour of death unto death; and to the other the savour of life unto life. And who is sufficient for these things?
{17} For we are not as many, which corrupt the word of God: but as of sincerity, but as of God, in the sight of God speak we in Christ.
