Proverbs 29:4


Proverbs 29:3 Proverbs 29:4 (KJV) Proverbs 29:5
Whoso loveth wisdom rejoiceth his father: but he that keepeth company with harlots spendeth [his] substance.
The king by judgment establisheth the land: but he that receiveth gifts overthroweth it.
A man that flattereth his neighbour spreadeth a net for his feet.
