Proverbios 15:28-33

28 El corazón del justo piensa para responder; mas la boca de los impíos derrama malas cosas

29 Lejos está el SEÑOR de los impíos; mas él oye la oración de los justos

30 La luz de los ojos alegra el corazón; y la buena fama engorda los huesos

31 La oreja que escucha la corrección de vida, entre los sabios morará

32 El que tiene en poco el castigo, menosprecia su alma; mas el que escucha la corrección, tiene corazón entendido

33 El temor del SEÑOR es enseñanza de sabiduría; y delante de la honra está la humildad

Proverbios 15:28-33 Meaning and Commentary

INTRODUCTION TO FIRST KINGS 5

This chapter relates Solomon's preparation for building the temple: on Hiram, king of Tyre, sending a congratulatory letter to him, he returned another to him, signifying his intention to build an house for God, and requesting him to supply him with timber, and men to work it, 1Ki 5:1-6; to which Hiram readily agreed, and sent him cedar and fir, and Solomon in return sent him food for his household; and things went on very amicably between them, 1Ki 5:7-12; the chapter concludes with an account of Solomon's workmen, where, how, and in what they were employed, 1Ki 5:13-18.
