Proverbs 15:30

Verse 30 of 33. The 15th of 31 chapters in Proverbs, in Poetry and Wisdom.

26The LORD detests the thoughts of the wicked, but the thoughts of the pure are pleasing.

27He who is greedy for gain troubles his own house, but he who hates bribes will live.

28The heart of the righteous weighs answers, but the mouth of the wicked gushes out evil.

29The LORD is far from the wicked, but he hears the prayer of the righteous.

30The light of the eyes rejoices the heart. Good news gives health to the bones.

31The ear that listens to reproof lives, and will be at home among the wise.

32He who refuses correction despises his own soul, but he who listens to reproof gets understanding.

33The fear of the LORD teaches wisdom. Before honor is humility.
