Proverbs 19:24 - Forerunner Commentary

Proverbs 19:24

22 What is desired in a man is¹ kindness,
And a poor man is better than a liar.

23 ^aThe fear of the Lord leads to life,
And he who has it will abide in satisfaction;
He will not be visited with evil.

24 ^aA lazy man buries his hand in the¹ bowl,
And will not so much as bring it to his mouth again.

25 Strike a scoffer, and the simple ^awill become wary;
^bRebuke one who has understanding, and he will discern knowledge.

26 He who mistreats his father and chases away his mother
Is ^aa son who causes shame and brings reproach.
