Proverb 20
Proverbs 20 (Amplified Bible)
Proverbs 20
1WINE IS a mocker, strong drink a riotous brawler; and whoever errs or reels because of it is not wise.(A) 2The terror of a king is as the roaring of a lion; whoever provokes him to anger or angers himself against him sins against his own life.3It is an honor for a man to cease from strife and keep aloof from it, but every fool will quarrel.
4The sluggard does not plow when winter sets in; therefore he begs in harvest and has nothing.
5Counsel in the heart of man is like water in a deep well, but a man of understanding draws it out.(B)
6Many a man proclaims his own loving-kindness and goodness, but a faithful man who can find?
7The righteous man walks in his integrity; blessed (happy, fortunate, enviable) are his children after him.
8A king who sits on the throne of judgment winnows out all evil [like chaff] with his eyes.
9Who can say, I have made my heart clean, I am pure from my sin?(C)
10Diverse weights [one for buying and another for selling] and diverse measures--both of them are exceedingly offensive and abhorrent to the Lord.(D)
11Even a child is known by his acts, whether [or not] what he does is pure and right.
12The hearing ear and the seeing eye--the Lord has made both of them.
13Love not sleep, lest you come to poverty; open your eyes and you will be satisfied with bread.
14It is worthless, it is worthless! says the buyer; but when he goes his way, then he boasts [about his bargain].
15There is gold, and a multitude of pearls, but the lips of knowledge are a vase of preciousness [the most precious of all].(E)
16[The judge tells the creditor] Take the garment of one who is security for a stranger; and hold him in pledge when he is security for foreigners.
17Food gained by deceit is sweet to a man, but afterward his mouth will be filled with gravel.
18Purposes and plans are established by counsel; and [only] with good advice make or carry on war.
19He who goes about as a talebearer reveals secrets; therefore associate not with him who talks too freely.(F)
20Whoever curses his father or his mother, his lamp shall be put out in complete darkness.
21An inheritance hastily gotten [by greedy, unjust means] at the beginning, in the end it will not be blessed.(G)
22Do not say, I will repay evil; wait [expectantly] for the Lord, and He will rescue you.(H)
23Diverse and deceitful weights are shamefully vile and abhorrent to the Lord, and false scales are not good.
24Man's steps are ordered by the Lord. How then can a man understand his way?
25It is a snare to a man to utter a vow [of consecration] rashly and [not until] afterward inquire [whether he can fulfill it].
26A wise king winnows out the wicked [from among the good] and brings the threshing wheel over them [to separate the chaff from the grain].
27The spirit of man [that factor in human personality which proceeds immediately from God] is the lamp of the Lord, searching all his innermost parts.(I)
28Loving-kindness and mercy, truth and faithfulness, preserve the king, and his throne is upheld by [the people's] loyalty.
29The glory of young men is their strength, and the beauty of old men is their gray head [suggesting wisdom and experience].
30Blows that wound cleanse away evil, and strokes [for correction] reach to the innermost parts.
Psalm 139
Psalm 139 (Amplified Bible)
Psalm 139
To the Chief Musician. A Psalm of David.
1O LORD, you have searched me [thoroughly] and have known me. 2You know my downsitting and my uprising; You understand my thought afar off.(A)3You sift and search out my path and my lying down, and You are acquainted with all my ways.
4For there is not a word in my tongue [still unuttered], but, behold, O Lord, You know it altogether.(B)
5You have beset me and shut me in--behind and before, and You have laid Your hand upon me.
6Your [infinite] knowledge is too wonderful for me; it is high above me, I cannot reach it.
7Where could I go from Your Spirit? Or where could I flee from Your presence?
8If I ascend up into heaven, You are there; if I make my bed in Sheol (the place of the dead), behold, You are there.(C)
9If I take the wings of the morning or dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea,
10Even there shall Your hand lead me, and Your right hand shall hold me.
11If I say, Surely the darkness shall cover me and the night shall be [the only] light about me,
12Even the darkness hides nothing from You, but the night shines as the day; the darkness and the light are both alike to You.(D)
13For You did form my inward parts; You did knit me together in my mother's womb.
14I will confess and praise You for You are fearful and wonderful and for the awful wonder of my birth! Wonderful are Your works, and that my inner self knows right well.
15My frame was not hidden from You when I was being formed in secret [and] intricately and curiously wrought [as if embroidered with various colors] in the depths of the earth [a region of darkness and mystery].
16Your eyes saw my unformed substance, and in Your book all the days [of my life] were written before ever they took shape, when as yet there was none of them.
17How precious and weighty also are Your thoughts to me, O God! How vast is the sum of them!(E)
18If I could count them, they would be more in number than the sand. When I awoke, [could I count to the end] I would still be with You.
19If You would [only] slay the wicked, O God, and the men of blood depart from me--(F)
20Who speak against You wickedly, Your enemies who take Your name in vain!(G)
21Do I not hate them, O Lord, who hate You? And am I not grieved and do I not loathe those who rise up against You?
22I hate them with perfect hatred; they have become my enemies.
23Search me [thoroughly], O God, and know my heart! Try me and know my thoughts!
24And see if there is any wicked or hurtful way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting.

God has called us to be here in this location on earth in this day and time.
Acts 17: 24-31
24The God Who produced and formed the world and all things in it, being Lord of heaven and earth, does not dwell in handmade shrines.
25Neither is He served by human hands, as though He lacked anything, for it is He Himself Whogives life and breath and all things to all [people].(A)
26And He made from one [common origin, one source, one blood] all nations of men to settle on the face of the earth, having definitely determined [their] allotted periods of time and the fixed boundaries of their habitation (their settlements, lands, and abodes),
27So that they should seek God, in the hope that they might feel after Him and find Him, although He is not far from each one of us.
28For in Him we live and move and have our being; as even some of your [own] poets have said, For we are also His offspring.
29Since then we are God's offspring, we ought not to suppose that Deity (the Godhead) is like gold or silver or stone, [of the nature of] a representation by human art and imagination, or anything constructed or invented.
30Such [former] ages of ignorance God, it is true, ignored and allowed to pass unnoticed; but now He charges all people everywhere to repent ([d]to change their minds for the better and heartily to amend their ways, with abhorrence of their past sins),
31Because He has fixed a day when He will judge the world righteously (justly) by a Man Whom He has destined and appointed for that task, and He has made this credible and given conviction and assurance and evidence to everyone by raising Him from the dead.(B)

Psalm 21
Psalm 21 (The Message)
You gave him exactly what he wanted;
you didn't hold back.
You filled his arms with gifts;
you gave him a right royal welcome.
He wanted a good life; you gave it to him,
and then made it a long life as a bonus.
You lifted him high and bright as a cumulus cloud,
then dressed him in rainbow colors.
You pile blessings on him;
you make him glad when you smile.
Is it any wonder the king loves God?
that he's sticking with the Best?
8-12 With a fistful of enemies in one hand
and a fistful of haters in the other,
You radiate with such brilliance
that they cringe as before a furnace.
Now the furnace swallows them whole,
the fire eats them alive!
You purge the earth of their progeny,
you wipe the slate clean.
All their evil schemes, the plots they cook up,
have fizzled—every one.
You sent them packing;
they couldn't face you.
13 Show your strength, God, so no one can miss it.
We are out singing the good news!
Psalm 21
A David Psalm
1-7Your strength, God, is the king's strength. Helped, he's hollering Hosannas.You gave him exactly what he wanted;
you didn't hold back.
You filled his arms with gifts;
you gave him a right royal welcome.
He wanted a good life; you gave it to him,
and then made it a long life as a bonus.
You lifted him high and bright as a cumulus cloud,
then dressed him in rainbow colors.
You pile blessings on him;
you make him glad when you smile.

Proverb 19
Proverbs 19 (Amplified Bible)
Proverbs 19
1BETTER IS a poor man who walks in his integrity than a rich man who is perverse in his speech and is a [self-confident] fool. 2Desire without knowledge is not good, and to be overhasty is to sin and miss the mark.3The foolishness of man subverts his way [ruins his affairs]; then his heart is resentful and frets against the Lord.
4Wealth makes many friends, but the poor man is avoided by his neighbor.(A)
5A false witness shall not be unpunished, and he who breathes out lies shall not escape.(B)
6Many will entreat the favor of a liberal man, and every man is a friend to him who gives gifts.
7All the brothers of a poor man detest him--how much more do his friends go far from him! He pursues them with words, but they are gone.
8He who gains Wisdom loves his own life; he who keeps understanding shall prosper and find good.
9A false witness shall not be unpunished, and he who breathes forth lies shall perish.
10Luxury is not fitting for a [self-confident] fool--much less for a slave to rule over princes.
11Good sense makes a man restrain his anger, and it is his glory to overlook a transgression or an offense.
12The king's wrath is as terrifying as the roaring of a lion, but his favor is as [refreshing as] dew upon the grass.(C)
13A self-confident and foolish son is the [multiplied] calamity of his father, and the contentions of a wife are like a continual dripping [of water through a chink in the roof].
14House and riches are the inheritance from fathers, but a wise, understanding, and prudent wife is from the Lord.(D)
15Slothfulness casts one into a deep sleep, and the idle person shall suffer hunger.
16He who keeps the commandment [of the Lord] keeps his own life, but he who despises His ways shall die.(E)
17He who has pity on the poor lends to the Lord, and that which he has given He will repay to him.(F)
18Discipline your son while there is hope, but do not [indulge your angry resentments by undue chastisements and] set yourself to his ruin.
19A man of great wrath shall suffer the penalty; for if you deliver him [from the consequences], he will [feel free to] cause you to do it again.
20Hear counsel, receive instruction, and accept correction, that you may be wise in the time to come.
21Many plans are in a man's mind, but it is the Lord's purpose for him that will stand.(G)
22That which is desired in a man is loyalty and kindness [and his glory and delight are his giving], but a poor man is better than a liar.
23The reverent, worshipful fear of the Lord leads to life, and he who has it rests satisfied; he cannot be visited with [actual] evil.(H)
24The sluggard buries his hand in the dish, and will not so much as bring it to his mouth again.
25Strike a scoffer, and the simple will learn prudence; reprove a man of understanding, and he will increase in knowledge.
26He who does violence to his father and chases away his mother is a son who causes shame and brings reproach.
27Cease, my son, to hear instruction only to ignore it and stray from the words of knowledge.
28A worthless witness scoffs at justice, and the mouth of the wicked swallows iniquity.
29Judgments are prepared for scoffers, and stripes for the backs of [self-confident] fools.(
