New American Standard Bible (NASB)
Proverbs 15
19 The way of the lazy is as a hedge of thorns, But the path of the upright is a highway.
20 A wise son makes a father glad, But a foolish man despises his mother.
21 Folly is joy to him who lacks sense, But a man of understanding walks straight.
22 Without consultation, plans are frustrated, But with many counselors they succeed.
23 A man has joy in an apt answer, And how delightful is a timely word!
24 The path of life leads upward for the wise That he may keep away from Sheol below.
25 The Lord will tear down the house of the proud, But He will establish the boundary of the widow.
26 Evil plans are an abomination to the Lord, But pleasant words are pure.
27 He who profits illicitly troubles his own house, But he who hates bribes will live.
28 The heart of the righteous ponders how to answer, But the mouth of the wicked pours out evil things.
29 The Lord is far from the wicked, But He hears the prayer of the righteous.
We pray that this ministry will be a blessing to you and your family.
