Proverbs 22:19

FaithWisdom

17 Incline your ear and hear the words of the wise— apply your mind to my knowledge—

18 for it is pleasing when you keep them within you and they are constantly on your lips.

So that your trust may be in the LORD, I instruct you today—yes, you.

20 Have I not written for you thirty sayings about counsel and knowledge,

21 to show you true and reliable words, that you may soundly answer those who sent you?
