Proverbs 10: The proverbs of Solomon begin

from Dad Reads the Word Hosted by Sam Gardner

In Proverbs 10, the proverbs of Solomon begin: The long discourses of chapters 1–9 give way to short, two-line sayings, each contrasting the wise and the foolish. It opens, "A wise son makes a glad father, but a foolish son brings grief to his mother." Much of the chapter is about speech—the wise guard their words, while too much talk leads to sin: "he who restrains his lips does wisely." Hard work brings provision, while laziness brings poverty. Integrity keeps a person secure—"He who walks blamelessly walks surely." Real blessing comes from the LORD, not from scheming: "The blessing of the LORD brings wealth, and he adds no trouble to it." Memory Verse: Proverbs 10:22 'Yahweh’s blessing brings wealth, and he adds no trouble to it. ' Scripture reading is from the World English Bible.
