Proverbs 22:15


← Proverbs 22:14 Proverbs 22:15 (KJV) Proverbs 22:16 →
The mouth of strange women is a deep pit: he that is abhorred of the LORD shall fall therein.
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.
