January 18: Proverbs 18

Fools have no interest in understanding; they only want to air their own opinions.


Wise words are like deep waters; wisdom flows from the wise like a bubbling brook.


Fools’ words get them into constant quarrels; they are asking for a beating.


Rumors are dainty morsels that sink deep into one’s heart.


Spouting off before listening to the facts is both shameful and foolish.


The human spirit can endure a sick body, but who can bear a crushed spirit?


Intelligent people are always ready to learn. Their ears are open for knowledge.



Wise words satisfy like a good meal; the right words bring satisfaction.




The tongue can bring death or life; those who love to talk will reap the consequences.


The man who finds a wife finds a treasure, and he receives favor from the Lord.

Whoa! Good chapter. Lots of wisdom here.
