[Music] don't be jealous of evil people have no desire to be around them in their hearts they plan to do evil all they talk about is making trouble good homes are built on wisdom and understanding knowledge fills the rooms with rare and beautiful Treasures wisdom makes a man more powerful knowledge gives a man strength get good advice before you start a war to win you must have many good advisers fools cannot understand wisdom they have nothing to say when people are discussing important things if you start planning ways to do wrong people will learn that
you are a troublemaker such foolish plans are wrong and people have no respect for someone who laughs at what is right if you are weak in times of trouble that is real weakness if you see someone on their way to death or in danger of being killed you must do something to save them you cannot say it's none of my business the Lord knows everything and he knows why you do things he watches you and he will pay you back for what you do my son eat honey it is good honey straight from the honeycomb
is the sweetest in the same way know that wisdom is good for you wisdom will give you something to hope for that will not disappoint you don't be like a criminal criminal who makes plans to Rob those who are good or take away their homes good people might fall again and again but they always get up it is the wicked who are defeated by their troubles son respect the Lord and the king and don't join with those who are against them because people like that can quickly be destroyed you have no idea how much trouble
God and the King can make for their enemies these are also words from the wise a judge must be fair he must not support some people simply because he knows them the people will turn against a judge who lets the guilty Go free even the people of other nations will curse him but if a judge punishes the guilty then people will be happy with him and he will be a blessing to them an honest answer is as pleasing as a kiss on the lips first get your Fields ready next Plant your crops and then build
your house don't speak against someone without good reason or you will appear foolish don't say you hurt me so I will do the same to you I will punish you for what you did to me I walked past a field that belonged to a lazy man it was a Vineyard that belonged to someone who understood nothing weeds were growing everywhere wild vines covered the ground and the wall around the vineyard was broken and falling down I looked at this and thought about it this is what I learned a little sleep a little rest folding your
arms and taking a nap these things will make you po very quickly soon you will have nothing as if a thief broke in and took everything away these are some more wise sayings from Solomon these Proverbs were copied by Servants of Hezekiah the king of Judah we honor God for the things he keeps secret but we honor Kings for the things they can discover we cannot discover how high the sky is above us or How deep the Earth is below the same is true with the minds of Kings we cannot understand them remove the worthless
things from Silver to make it pure and a worker can make something beautiful take the evil advisers away from a king and goodness will make his kingdom strong don't brag about yourself before the king and pretend you are someone important it is much better for the king to invite you to take a more important position position than to embarrass you in front of his officials don't be too quick to tell a judge about something you saw you will be embarrassed if someone else proves you wrong if you want to tell your friends about your own
problems tell them but don't discuss what someone told you in private whoever hears it will lose their respect for you and will never trust you again saying the right thing at the right time is like a golden apple in a silver setting wise advice to a listening ear is like gold earrings or Fine Jewelry to his master who sent him a messenger who can be trusted is as refreshing as a drink of cold water on a hot summer day people who promise to give gifts but never give them are like clouds and wind that bring
no rain with patience you can make anyone change their thinking even a ruler gentle speech is very powerful honey is good but don't eat too much of it or you will be sick and don't visit your neighbors homes too often or they will begin to hate you a person who gives false testimony against a neighbor is as deadly as a club a sword or a very sharp arrow never depend on a liar in times of trouble it's like chewing with a bad tooth or walking with a crippled foot singing happy songs to a sad person
is as foolish as taking a coat off on a cold day or mixing soda and vinegar if your enemies are hungry give them something to eat if they are thirsty give them some water this will make them feel the burning pain of Shame and the Lord will reward you for being good to them just as wind blowing from the north brings rain telling Secrets brings anger it is better to live in a small corner of the roof than to share the house with a woman who is always arguing good news from a far away place
is like a cool drink of water when you are hot and thirsty good people who don't stand strong against evil are like Springs that have been polluted or pools that have turned dirty and muddy just as eating too much honey is not good it is not good for people to always be looking for Honor people who cannot control themselves are like cities without walls to protect them just as snow should not fall in summer nor rain at Harvest Time so people should not honor a fool don't worry when someone curses you for no reason nothing
bad will happen such words are like birds that fly past and never stop you have to whip a horse you have to put a bridle on a mule and you have to beat a fool there is no good way to answer fools when they say something stupid if you answer them then you too will look like a fool if you don't answer them they will think they are smart never let a fool carry your message if you do it will be like cutting off your own feet you are only asking for trouble a fool trying
to say something wise is like a crippled person trying to walk showing honor to a fool is as bad as tying a rock in a sling a fool trying to say something wise is like a drunk trying to pick a thorn out of his hand hiring a fool or a stranger who is just passing by is dangerous you don't know who might get hurt like a dog that returns to its vomit a fool does the same foolish things again and again people who think they are wise when they are not are worse than fools a
person who is lazy and wants to stay home says what if there is a lion out there really there might be a lion in the street like a door on its hinges a lazy man turns back and forth on his bed lazy people are too lazy to lift the food from their plate to their mouth lazy people think they are seven times smarter than the people who really have good sense to step between two people arguing is as foolish as going out into the street and grabbing a stray dog by the ears anyone who would
trick someone and then say I was only joking is like a fool who shoots flaming arrows into the air and accidentally kills someone without wood a fire goes out without gossip arguments stop charcoal keeps the coals glowing wood keeps the fire burning and troublemakers keep arguments alive people people love to hear gossip it is like tasty food on its way to the stomach good words that hide an evil heart are like silver paint over a cheap Clay Pot evil people say things to make themselves look good but they keep their evil plans are secret what
they say sounds good but don't trust them they are full of evil ideas they hide their evil plans with nice words but in the end everyone will see the evil they do whoever digs a pit can fall into it whoever rolls a large Stone can be crushed by it Liars hate the people they hurt and false praise can hurt [Music] people thanks for watching please subscribe like and share
