Proverbs 15:3-4, 6, 9-10, 14, 16, 27, 29, 33

The LORD is watching everywhere, keeping his eye on both the evil and the good. Gentle words are a tree of life; a deceitful tongue crushes the spirit.

There is treasure in the house of the godly, but the earnings of the wicked bring trouble.

The LORD detests the way of the wicked, but he loves those who pursue godliness. Whoever abandons the right path will be severely disciplined; whoever hates correction will die.

A wise person is hungry for knowledge, while the fool feeds on trash.

Better to have little, with fear for the LORD, than to have great treasure and inner turmoil.

Greed brings grief to the whole family, but those who hate bribes will live.

The LORD is far from the wicked, but he hears the prayers of the righteous.

Fear of the LORD teaches wisdom; humility precedes honor.
