Proverbs 22:16


Proverbs 22:15 Proverbs 22:16 (KJV) Proverbs 22:17
Foolishness [is] bound in the heart of a child; [but] the rod of correction shall drive it far from him.
He that oppresseth the poor to increase his [riches, and] he that giveth to the rich, [shall] surely [come] to want.
Bow down thine ear, and hear the words of the wise, and apply thine heart unto my knowledge.
