Book of Proverbs (plus bonus proverbs) | Part 3
Continuing on from my Part 2 post with the Book of Proverbs written by King Solomon the son of King David... Most people have heard of the name King Solomon and quite rightly too. The bible tells us he was at the time (I don't know if it still applies today) the wisest among all men, "And he spake three thousand proverbs: and his songs were a thousand and five." 1 Kings 4:32
The Lord's Wisdom:
19 The Lord by wisdom founded the earth,
By understanding He established the heavens.
20 By His knowledge the deeps were broken up
And the skies drip with dew.
21 My son, let them not vanish from your sight;
Keep sound wisdom and discretion,
22 So they will be life to your soul
And adornment to your neck.
23 Then you will walk in your way securely
And your foot will not stumble.
24 When you lie down, you will not be afraid;
When you lie down, your sleep will be sweet. Pro 3:19-24
Proverbs of King Solomon
Do not withhold good from those to whom it is due,
When it is in your power to do it.
(Pro 3:27)
Do not contend with a man without cause,
If he has done you no harm.
(Pro 3:30)
The curse of the Lord is on the house of the wicked,
But He blesses the dwelling of the righteous.
(Pro 3:33)
My own
'He who acts like a clear raindrop creates an everlasting ripple'
'A broken oath can injure the soul'
'The young teacher dies a wise man'

One book in the bible I love reading. It can give u spiritual wisdom and human wisdom. Especially when I read with other translations. I love it!
It certainly does, I love reading it also! It never gets old as well, amazing how a sayings written 3000years ago are just as relevant today. Thank you.
