Proverbs 15

<< Proverbs 15 >>
New International Version 1984
 

29The Lord is far from the wicked

but he hears the prayer of the righteous.

30A cheerful look brings joy to the heart,

and good news gives health to the bones.

31He who listens to a life-giving rebuke

will be at home among the wise.

32He who ignores discipline despises himself,

but whoever heeds correction gains understanding.

33The fear of the Lord teaches a man wisdom,c

and humility comes before honor.
