Ordspråkene 17,2

Wisdom

1 Bedre er en tørr skorpe med fred enn et hus fullt av festing med konflikt.

En klok tjener vil styre over en vanærende sønn og vil dele arven blant familien.

3 Smeltedigelen er for sølv og ovnen for gull, men Herren prøver hjertene.

4 En ugjerningsmann lytter til bedragerske lepper; en løgner hører på en skadelig tunge.
