16406  Proverbs 1:5  A wise man will hear, and will increase learning; and a man of understanding shall attain unto wise counsels:

16489  Proverbs 3:33  The curse of the LORD is in the house of the wicked: but he blesseth the habitation of the just.

16512  Proverbs 4:21  Let them not depart from thine eyes; keep them in the midst of thine heart. 
16513  Proverbs 4:22  For they are life unto those that find them, and health to all their flesh. 
16514  Proverbs 4:23  Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life.

16516  Proverbs 4:25  Let thine eyes look right on, and let thine eyelids look straight before thee. 
16517  Proverbs 4:26  Ponder the path of thy feet, and let all thy ways be established. 
16518  Proverbs 4:27  Turn not to the right hand nor to the left: remove thy foot from evil. 
16519  Proverbs 5:1  My son, attend unto my wisdom, and bow thine ear to my understanding: 
16520  Proverbs 5:2  That thou mayest regard discretion, and that thy lips may keep knowledge. 
16521  Proverbs 5:3  For the lips of a strange woman drop as an honeycomb, and her mouth is smoother than oil: 
16522  Proverbs 5:4  But her end is bitter as wormwood, sharp as a twoedged sword. 
16523  Proverbs 5:5  Her feet go down to death; her steps take hold on hell. 
16524  Proverbs 5:6  Lest thou shouldest ponder the path of life, her ways are moveable, that thou canst not know them. 
16525  Proverbs 5:7  Hear me now therefore, O ye children, and depart not from the words of my mouth. 
16526  Proverbs 5:8  Remove thy way far from her, and come not nigh the door of her house: 
16527  Proverbs 5:9  Lest thou give thine honour unto others, and thy years unto the cruel: 
16528  Proverbs 5:10  Lest strangers be filled with thy wealth; and thy labours be in the house of a stranger; 
16529  Proverbs 5:11  And thou mourn at the last, when thy flesh and thy body are consumed, 
16530  Proverbs 5:12  And say, How have I hated instruction, and my heart despised reproof; 
16531  Proverbs 5:13  And have not obeyed the voice of my teachers, nor inclined mine ear to them that instructed me! 
16532  Proverbs 5:14  I was almost in all evil in the midst of the congregation and assembly. 
16533  Proverbs 5:15  Drink waters out of thine own cistern, and running waters out of thine own well. 
16534  Proverbs 5:16  Let thy fountains be dispersed abroad, and rivers of waters in the streets. 
16535  Proverbs 5:17  Let them be only thine own, and not strangers' with thee. 
16536  Proverbs 5:18  Let thy fountain be blessed: and rejoice with the wife of thy youth. 
16537  Proverbs 5:19  Let her be as the loving hind and pleasant roe; let her breasts satisfy thee at all times; and be thou ravished always with her love. 
16538  Proverbs 5:20  And why wilt thou, my son, be ravished with a strange woman, and embrace the bosom of a stranger? 
16539  Proverbs 5:21  For the ways of man are before the eyes of the LORD, and he pondereth all his goings. 
16540  Proverbs 5:22  His own iniquities shall take the wicked himself, and he shall be holden with the cords of his sins. 
16541  Proverbs 5:23  He shall die without instruction; and in the greatness of his folly he shall go astray. 
16542  Proverbs 6:1  My son, if thou be surety for thy friend, if thou hast stricken thy hand with a stranger, 
16543  Proverbs 6:2  Thou art snared with the words of thy mouth, thou art taken with the words of thy mouth. 
16544  Proverbs 6:3  Do this now, my son, and deliver thyself, when thou art come into the hand of thy friend; go, humble thyself, and make sure thy friend. 
16545  Proverbs 6:4  Give not sleep to thine eyes, nor slumber to thine eyelids. 
16546  Proverbs 6:5  Deliver thyself as a roe from the hand of the hunter, and as a bird from the hand of the fowler. 
16547  Proverbs 6:6  Go to the ant, thou sluggard; consider her ways, and be wise: 
16548  Proverbs 6:7  Which having no guide, overseer, or ruler, 
16549  Proverbs 6:8  Provideth her meat in the summer, and gathereth her food in the harvest. 
16550  Proverbs 6:9  How long wilt thou sleep, O sluggard? when wilt thou arise out of thy sleep? 
16551  Proverbs 6:10  Yet a little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to sleep: 
16552  Proverbs 6:11  So shall thy poverty come as one that travelleth, and thy want as an armed man. 
16553  Proverbs 6:12  A naughty person, a wicked man, walketh with a froward mouth. 
16554  Proverbs 6:13  He winketh with his eyes, he speaketh with his feet, he teacheth with his fingers; 
16555  Proverbs 6:14  Frowardness is in his heart, he deviseth mischief continually; he soweth discord. 
16556  Proverbs 6:15  Therefore shall his calamity come suddenly; suddenly shall he be broken without remedy. 
16557  Proverbs 6:16  These six things doth the LORD hate: yea, seven are an abomination unto him: 
16558  Proverbs 6:17  A proud look, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood, 
16559  Proverbs 6:18  An heart that deviseth wicked imaginations, feet that be swift in running to mischief, 
16560  Proverbs 6:19  A false witness that speaketh lies, and he that soweth discord among brethren. 
16561  Proverbs 6:20  My son, keep thy father's commandment, and forsake not the law of thy mother: 
16562  Proverbs 6:21  Bind them continually upon thine heart, and tie them about thy neck. 
16563  Proverbs 6:22  When thou goest, it shall lead thee; when thou sleepest, it shall keep thee; and when thou awakest, it shall talk with thee. 
16564  Proverbs 6:23  For the commandment is a lamp; and the law is light; and reproofs of instruction are the way of life: 
16565  Proverbs 6:24  To keep thee from the evil woman, from the flattery of the tongue of a strange woman. 
16566  Proverbs 6:25  Lust not after her beauty in thine heart; neither let her take thee with her eyelids. 
16567  Proverbs 6:26  For by means of a whorish woman a man is brought to a piece of bread: and the adulteress will hunt for the precious life. 
16568  Proverbs 6:27  Can a man take fire in his bosom, and his clothes not be burned? 
16569  Proverbs 6:28  Can one go upon hot coals, and his feet not be burned? 
16570  Proverbs 6:29  So he that goeth in to his neighbour's wife; whosoever toucheth her shall not be innocent. 
16571  Proverbs 6:30  Men do not despise a thief, if he steal to satisfy his soul when he is hungry; 
16572  Proverbs 6:31  But if he be found, he shall restore sevenfold; he shall give all the substance of his house. 
16573  Proverbs 6:32  But whoso committeth adultery with a woman lacketh understanding: he that doeth it destroyeth his own soul. 
16574  Proverbs 6:33  A wound and dishonour shall he get; and his reproach shall not be wiped away. 
16575  Proverbs 6:34  For jealousy is the rage of a man: therefore he will not spare in the day of vengeance. 
16576  Proverbs 6:35  He will not regard any ransom; neither will he rest content, though thou givest many gifts. 
16577  Proverbs 7:1  My son, keep my words, and lay up my commandments with thee. 
16578  Proverbs 7:2  Keep my commandments, and live; and my law as the apple of thine eye. 
16579  Proverbs 7:3  Bind them upon thy fingers, write them upon the table of thine heart. 
16580  Proverbs 7:4  Say unto wisdom, Thou art my sister; and call understanding thy kinswoman: 
16581  Proverbs 7:5  That they may keep thee from the strange woman, from the stranger which flattereth with her words. 
16582  Proverbs 7:6  For at the window of my house I looked through my casement, 
16583  Proverbs 7:7  And beheld among the simple ones, I discerned among the youths, a young man void of understanding, 
16584  Proverbs 7:8  Passing through the street near her corner; and he went the way to her house, 
16585  Proverbs 7:9  In the twilight, in the evening, in the black and dark night: 
16586  Proverbs 7:10  And, behold, there met him a woman with the attire of an harlot, and subtil of heart. 
16587  Proverbs 7:11  (She is loud and stubborn; her feet abide not in her house: 
16588  Proverbs 7:12  Now is she without, now in the streets, and lieth in wait at every corner.) 
16589  Proverbs 7:13  So she caught him, and kissed him, and with an impudent face said unto him, 
16590  Proverbs 7:14  I have peace offerings with me; this day have I payed my vows. 
16591  Proverbs 7:15  Therefore came I forth to meet thee, diligently to seek thy face, and I have found thee. 
16592  Proverbs 7:16  I have decked my bed with coverings of tapestry, with carved works, with fine linen of Egypt. 
16593  Proverbs 7:17  I have perfumed my bed with myrrh, aloes, and cinnamon. 
16594  Proverbs 7:18  Come, let us take our fill of love until the morning: let us solace ourselves with loves. 
16595  Proverbs 7:19  For the goodman is not at home, he is gone a long journey: 
16596  Proverbs 7:20  He hath taken a bag of money with him, and will come home at the day appointed. 
16597  Proverbs 7:21  With her much fair speech she caused him to yield, with the flattering of her lips she forced him. 
16598  Proverbs 7:22  He goeth after her straightway, as an ox goeth to the slaughter, or as a fool to the correction of the stocks; 
16599  Proverbs 7:23  Till a dart strike through his liver; as a bird hasteth to the snare, and knoweth not that it is for his life. 
16600  Proverbs 7:24  Hearken unto me now therefore, O ye children, and attend to the words of my mouth. 
16601  Proverbs 7:25  Let not thine heart decline to her ways, go not astray in her paths. 
16602  Proverbs 7:26  For she hath cast down many wounded: yea, many strong men have been slain by her. 
16603  Proverbs 7:27  Her house is the way to hell, going down to the chambers of death. 
16604  Proverbs 8:1  Doth not wisdom cry? and understanding put forth her voice? 
16605  Proverbs 8:2  She standeth in the top of high places, by the way in the places of the paths. 
16606  Proverbs 8:3  She crieth at the gates, at the entry of the city, at the coming in at the doors. 
16607  Proverbs 8:4  Unto you, O men, I call; and my voice is to the sons of man. 
16608  Proverbs 8:5  O ye simple, understand wisdom: and, ye fools, be ye of an understanding heart. 
16609  Proverbs 8:6  Hear; for I will speak of excellent things; and the opening of my lips shall be right things. 
16610  Proverbs 8:7  For my mouth shall speak truth; and wickedness is an abomination to my lips. 
16611  Proverbs 8:8  All the words of my mouth are in righteousness; there is nothing froward or perverse in them. 
16612  Proverbs 8:9  They are all plain to him that understandeth, and right to them that find knowledge. 
16613  Proverbs 8:10  Receive my instruction, and not silver; and knowledge rather than choice gold. 
16614  Proverbs 8:11  For wisdom is better than rubies; and all the things that may be desired are not to be compared to it. 
16615  Proverbs 8:12  I wisdom dwell with prudence, and find out knowledge of witty inventions. 
16616  Proverbs 8:13  The fear of the LORD is to hate evil: pride, and arrogancy, and the evil way, and the froward mouth, do I hate. 
16617  Proverbs 8:14  Counsel is mine, and sound wisdom: I am understanding; I have strength. 
16618  Proverbs 8:15  By me kings reign, and princes decree justice. 
16619  Proverbs 8:16  By me princes rule, and nobles, even all the judges of the earth. 
16620  Proverbs 8:17  I love them that love me; and those that seek me early shall find me. 
16621  Proverbs 8:18  Riches and honour are with me; yea, durable riches and righteousness. 
16622  Proverbs 8:19  My fruit is better than gold, yea, than fine gold; and my revenue than choice silver. 
16623  Proverbs 8:20  I lead in the way of righteousness, in the midst of the paths of judgment: 
16624  Proverbs 8:21  That I may cause those that love me to inherit substance; and I will fill their treasures. 
16625  Proverbs 8:22  The LORD possessed me in the beginning of his way, before his works of old. 
16626  Proverbs 8:23  I was set up from everlasting, from the beginning, or ever the earth was. 
16627  Proverbs 8:24  When there were no depths, I was brought forth; when there were no fountains abounding with water. 
16628  Proverbs 8:25  Before the mountains were settled, before the hills was I brought forth: 
16629  Proverbs 8:26  While as yet he had not made the earth, nor the fields, nor the highest part of the dust of the world. 
16630  Proverbs 8:27  When he prepared the heavens, I was there: when he set a compass upon the face of the depth:
