Proverbs 20:1-6

1 Wine [is] a scorner -- strong drink [is] noisy, And any going astray in it is not wise.

2 The fear of a king [is] a growl as of a young lion, He who is causing him to be wroth is wronging his soul.

3 An honour to a man is cessation from strife, And every fool intermeddleth.

4 Because of winter the slothful plougheth not, He asketh in harvest, and there is nothing.

5 Counsel in the heart of a man [is] deep water, And a man of understanding draweth it up.

6 A multitude of men proclaim each his kindness, And a man of stedfastness who doth find?
