from the BIBLE

[SOUL SAUCE]

here are some verses i read in the proverbs section of the bible. Food for thought.


Sensible people are careful to stay out of trouble, but stupid people ar careless and act too quickly.

People with a hot temper do foolish things; wiser people remain calm.

if you want to be happy, be kind to the poor; it is a sin to despise anyone.

if you stay calm, you are wise, but if you have a hot temper, you only show how stupid you are.

peace of mind makes the body healthy, but jealousy is like a cancer.

a lie has a short life, but truth lives on forever.

smart people keep quiet about what they know, but stupid people advertise their ignorance.

thoughtless words can wound as deeply as any sword, but wisely spoken words can heal.

When a fool is annoyed, he quickly lets it be known. Smart people will ignore an insult.

stay away from foolish people, they have nothing to teach you.

smiling faces makes you happy, and good news makes you feel better.

Kind words bring life, but curel words crush your spirit.

Kind words are like honey - sweet to the taste and good for your health.

Evil people look for ways to harm others; even their words burn with evil.

Respected people do not tell lies and fools have nothing worthwhile to say.

Thankyou.

I like reading Proverbs as much as possible as well.

Which version of the Bible is that from

From the writing it looks like a modern translation of some form.

Sensible people are careful to stay out of trouble, but stupid people ar careless and act too quickly.


Proverbs 27:12 A prudent man foreseeth the evil, and hideth himself; but the simple pass on, and are punished.(KJV)


People with a hot temper do foolish things; wiser people remain calm.

Proverbs 14:17 He that is soon angry dealeth foolishly: and a man of wicked devices is hated.(KJV)

Have to check the others out when I get home.
