Provers 3:31-32 "Do not envy a violent man or choose any of his ways, for the Lord detests a perverse man but takes the upright into his confidence."



Proverbs 6:16-19 "There are six things the Lord hates, seven that are detestable to him: haughty eyes, a lying tongue, hands that shed innocent blood, a heart that devises wicked schemes, feet that are quick to rush into evil, a false witness who pours out lies and a man who stirs up dissention among brothers."



Proverbs 9:7-9 "Whoever corrects a mocker invites insult; whoever rebukes a wicked man incurs abuse. Do not rebuke a mocker or he will hate you; rebuke a wise man and he will love you. Instruct a wise man and he will be wiser stil; teach a righteous man and he will add to his learning."



Proverbs 9:10-11 "The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom, and knowledge of the Holy One is understanding. For through me your days will be many, and years will be added to your life."

Proverbs 10:27 "The fear of the Lord adds length to life, but the years of the wicked are cut short."



Proverbs 11:2 "When pride comes, then comes disgrace, but with humility comes wisdom."



Proverbs 11:13 "A gossip betrays a confidence, but a trustworthy man keeps a secret."



Proverbs 12:22 "The Lord detests lying lips, but he delights in men who are truthful."



Proverbs 13:10 "Pride only breeds quarrels, but wisdom is found in those who take advice."



Proverbs 14:25 "A truthful witness saves lives, but a false witness is deceitful."



Proverbs 15:5 "A fool spurns his father's discipline, but whoever heeds correction shows prudence."



Proverbs 15:29 "The Lord is far from the wicked but he hears the prayer of the righteous."



Proverbs 16:16 "How much better to get wisdom than gold, to choose understanding rather than silver!"



Proverbs 16:24 "Pleasant words are a honeycomb, sweet to the soul and healing to the bones."



Proverbs 16:31 "Grey hair is a crown of splendor; it is attained by a righteous life."



Proverbs 17:17 "A friend loves at all times, and a brother is born for adversity."



Proverbs 19:18 "Discipline your son, for in that there is hope; but do not be a willing party to his death."



Proverbs 19:20 "Listen to advice and accept instruction, and in the end you will be wise."



Proverbs 22:9 "A generous man will himself be blessed, for he shares his food with the poor."



Proverbs 24:17-18 "Do not gloat when your enemy falls; when he stumbles, do not let your heart rejoice, or the Lord will see and disapprove and turn His wrath away from him."



Proverbs 24:26 "An honest answer is like a kiss on the lips."



Proverbs 31:8-9 "Speak up for those who cannot speak for themselves, for the right os all who are destitute. Speak up and judge fairly; defend the rights of the poor and needy."



I hope you find these helpful.

The acorn never falls far from the tree.

The ball is in your court.

The best things come in small packages.

The best things in life are free.

The calm comes before the storm.

The coat makes the man.

The cure is worse than the disease.

The customer is always right.

The early bird gets the worm.

The end justifies the means.

The English are a nation of shopkeepers (attributed to Napoleon)

The longest mile is the last mile home.

The more you know, the more you know you don't know.

The only free cheese is in the mouse trap.

The pen is mightier than the sword.

The way to a man's heart is through his stomach.

The weak can never forgive. Forgiveness is the attribute of the strong.

The whole is greater than its parts.

The exception proves the rule.

The first step to health is to know that we are sick.

The grass is always greener on the other side..

The head and feet keep warm, the rest will take no harm.
