Proverbs 19:14
King James VersionSource notes
“House and riches the inheritance of fathers and a prudent wife from the LORD.”
Context
11The discretion of a man deferreth his anger; and his glory to pass over a transgression.
12The king’s wrath as the roaring of a lion; but his favour as dew upon the grass.
13A foolish son the calamity of his father: and the contentions of a wife a continual dropping.
14House and riches the inheritance of fathers and a prudent wife from the LORD.
15Slothfulness casteth into a deep sleep; and an idle soul shall suffer hunger.
16He that keepeth the commandment keepeth his own soul; he that despiseth his ways shall die.
17He that hath pity upon the poor lendeth unto the LORD; and that which he hath given will he pay him again.
