Proverbs 20:1-30

Lessons about wisdom

Proverbs

Keith Simons

Chapter 20

v1 Wine is like a man who insults you. Beer is like a man who shouts at you.

If wine and beer tempt you, then you are not wise.

v2 An angry king is like a roaring lion.

If you make the king angry, then you will die.

v3 If a man avoids arguments, then he deserves honour.

A fool always argues.

v4 A lazy man does not plough the ground during the cold weather.

When the harvest is due, he looks for food. He finds nothing.
