Proverbs 20:5 - Forerunner Commentary

Proverbs 20:5

3 ^aIt is honorable for a man to stop striving,
Since any fool can start a quarrel.

4 ^aThe lazy man will not plow because of winter;
^bHe will beg during harvest and have nothing.

5 Counsel in the heart of man is like deep water,
But a man of understanding will draw it out.

6 Most men will proclaim each his own¹ goodness,
But who can find a faithful man?

7 ^aThe righteous man walks in his integrity;
^bHis children are blessed after him.
