Proverbs 14:27-31 God's Word Translation (GW)

27. The fear of the Lord is a fountain of lifeto turn ⌊one⌋ away from the grasp of death.

28. A large population is an honor for a king,but without people a ruler is ruined.

29. A person of great understanding is patient,but a short temper is the height of stupidity.

30. A tranquil heart makes for a healthy body,but jealousy is ⌊like⌋ bone cancer.

31. Whoever oppresses the poor insults his maker,but whoever is kind to the needy honors him.
