Pamela Goodman

A glad heart makes a cheerful face, but by sorrow of heart the spirit is crushed.

Pamela Goodman

There is severe discipline for him who forsakes the way; whoever hates reproof will die. The way of the wicked is an abomination to the Lord, but he loves him who pursues righteousness.

highlighted Proverbs 15:4 ESV

A gentle tongue is a tree of life, but perverseness in it breaks the spirit.

Pamela Goodman

highlighted Proverbs 15:2-3 ESV

The tongue of the wise commends knowledge, but the mouths of fools pour out folly. The eyes of the Lord are in every place, keeping watch on the evil and the good.

Pamela Goodman

highlighted Proverbs 15:1 ESV

A soft answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger.

Sep 2

Whoever is slow to anger has great understanding, but he who has a hasty temper exalts folly. A tranquil heart gives life to the flesh, but envy makes the bones rot. Whoever oppresses a poor man insults his Maker, but he who is generous to the needy honors him. The wicked is overthrown through his evildoing, but the righteous finds refuge in his death. Wisdom rests in the heart of a man of understanding, but it makes itself known even in the midst of fools. Righteousness exalts a nation, but sin is a reproach to any people. A servant who deals wisely has the king's favor, but his wrath falls on one who acts shamefully.

highlighted Proverbs 14:24-28 ESV

The crown of the wise is their wealth, but the folly of fools brings folly. A truthful witness saves lives, but one who breathes out lies is deceitful. In the fear of the Lord one has strong confidence, and his children will have a refuge. The fear of the Lord is a fountain of life, that one may turn away from the snares of death. In a multitude of people is the glory of a king, but without people a prince is ruined.

Pamela Goodman

highlighted Proverbs 14:21 ESV

Whoever despises his neighbor is a sinner, but blessed is he who is generous to the poor.

Sep 1

Pamela Goodman

highlighted Proverbs 14:20 ESV

The poor is disliked even by his neighbor, but the rich has many friends.

Sep 1

Pamela Goodman

highlighted Proverbs 14:11-16 ESV

The house of the wicked will be destroyed, but the tent of the upright will flourish. There is a way that seems right to a man, but its end is the way to death. Even in laughter the heart may ache, and the end of joy may be grief. The backslider in heart will be filled with the fruit of his ways, and a good man will be filled with the fruit of his ways. The simple believes everything, but the prudent gives thought to his steps. One who is wise is cautious and turns away from evil, but a fool is reckless and careless.
