Spreuken 15:1-6

Listen to Spreuken 15:1-6
1 Een zacht antwoord keert de grimmigheid af; maar een smartend woord doet den toorn oprijzen.
2 De tong der wijzen maakt de wetenschap goed; maar de mond der zotten stort overvloediglijk dwaasheid uit.
3 De ogen des HEEREN zijn in alle plaatsen, beschouwende de kwaden en de goeden.
4 De medicijn der tong is een boom des levens; maar de verkeerdheid in dezelve is een breuk in den geest.
5 Een dwaas zal de tucht zijns vaders versmaden; maar die de bestraffing waarneemt, zal kloekzinniglijk handelen.
6 In het huis des rechtvaardigen is een grote schat; maar in des goddelozen inkomst is beroerte.

Spreuken 15:1-6 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.
