Proverbs Chapter 24

• Proverbs 24:1
  Proverbs.
• Proverbs 24:2
  Don’t be envious of evil men, neither desire to be with them;
• Proverbs 24:3
  for their hearts plot violence and their lips talk about mischief.
• Proverbs 24:4
  Through wisdom a house is built; by understanding it is established;
• Proverbs 24:6
  A wise man has great power. A knowledgeable man increases strength,
• Proverbs 24:7
  for by wise guidance you wage your war, and victory is in many advisors.
• Proverbs 24:8
  Wisdom is too high for a fool. He doesn’t open his mouth in the gate.
• Proverbs 24:9
  One who plots to do evil will be called a schemer.
• Proverbs 24:10
  The schemes of folly are sin. The mocker is detested by men.
• Proverbs 24:11
  If you falter in the time of trouble, your strength is small.
• Proverbs 24:12
  Rescue those who are being led away to death! Indeed, hold back those who are staggering to the slaughter!
• Proverbs 24:13
  If you say, “Behold, we didn’t know this,” doesn’t he who weighs the hearts consider it? He who keeps your soul, doesn’t he know it? Shall he not give...
• Proverbs 24:14
  My son, eat honey, for it is good, the droppings of the honeycomb, which are sweet to your taste;
• Proverbs 24:15
  so you shall know wisdom to be to your soul. If you have found it, then there will be a reward: Your hope will not be cut off.
• Proverbs 24:16
  Don’t lay in wait, wicked man, against the habitation of the righteous. Don’t destroy his resting place;
• Proverbs 24:17
  for a righteous man falls seven times and rises up again, but the wicked are overthrown by calamity.
• Proverbs 24:18
  Don’t rejoice when your enemy falls. Don’t let your heart be glad when he is overthrown,
• Proverbs 24:19
  lest the LORD see it, and it displease him, and he turn away his wrath from him.
• Proverbs 24:20
  Don’t fret yourself because of evildoers, neither be envious of the wicked;
• Proverbs 24:21
  for there will be no reward to the evil man. The lamp of the wicked will be snuffed out.
• Proverbs 24:22
  My son, fear the LORD and the king. Don’t join those who are rebellious,
• Proverbs 24:23
  for their calamity will rise suddenly. Who knows what destruction may come from them both?
• Proverbs 24:24
  These also are sayings of the wise: To show partiality in judgment is not good.
• Proverbs 24:25
  He who says to the wicked, “You are righteous,” peoples will curse him, and nations will abhor him—
• Proverbs 24:26
  but it will go well with those who convict the guilty, and a rich blessing will come on them.
• Proverbs 24:27
  An honest answer is like a kiss on the lips.
• Proverbs 24:28
  Prepare your work outside, and get your fields ready. Afterwards, build your house.
• Proverbs 24:29
  Don’t be a witness against your neighbor without cause. Don’t deceive with your lips.
• Proverbs 24:30
  Don’t say, “I will do to him as he has done to me; I will repay the man according to his work.”
• Proverbs 24:31
  I went by the field of the sluggard, by the vineyard of the man void of understanding.
• Proverbs 24:32
  Behold, it was all grown over with thorns. Its surface was covered with nettles, and its stone wall was broken down.
• Proverbs 24:33
  Then I saw, and considered well. I saw, and received instruction:
• Proverbs 24:34
  a little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to sleep,
• Proverbs 24:35
  so your poverty will come as a robber and your want as an armed man.
