| 15:1 | A soft answer turneth away wrath: but grievous words stir up anger. | |
| 15:2 | The tongue of the wise useth knowledge aright: but the mouth of fools poureth out foolishness. | |
| 15:3 | The eyes of the LORD in every place, beholding the evil and the good. | |
| 15:4 | A wholesome tongue a tree of life: but perverseness in it a breach in the spirit. | |
| 15:5 | A fool despiseth his father's instruction: but he that regardeth reproof is prudent. | |
| 15:6 | In the house of the righteous much treasure: but in the revenues of the wicked is trouble. | |
| 15:7 | The lips of the wise diffuse knowledge: but the heart of the foolish not so. | |
| 15:8 | The sacrifice of the wicked an abomination to the LORD: but the prayer of the upright his delight. | |
| 15:9 | The way of the wicked an abomination to the LORD; but he loveth him that followeth after righteousness. | |
| 15:10 | Correction grievous to him that forsaketh the way: he that hateth reproof shall die. | |
| 15:11 | Hell and destruction before the LORD: how much more then the hearts of the children of men? | |
| 15:12 | A scorner loveth not one that reproveth him: neither will he go to the wise. | |
| 15:13 | A merry heart maketh a cheerful countenance: but by sorrow of the heart the spirit is broken. | |
| 15:14 | The heart of him that hath understanding seeketh knowledge: but the mouth of fools feedeth on foolishness. | |
| 15:15 | All the days of the afflicted evil: but he that is of a merry heart a continual feast. | |
| 15:16 | Better little with the fear of the LORD, than great treasure and trouble with it. | |
| 15:17 | Better a dinner of herbs where love is, than a stalled ox and hatred with it. | |
| 15:18 | A wrathful man stirreth up strife: but slow to anger appeaseth strife. | |
| 15:19 | The way of the slothful as a hedge of thorns: but the way of the righteous made plain. | |
| 15:20 | A wise son maketh a glad father: but a foolish man despiseth his mother. | |
| 15:21 | Folly joy to destitute of wisdom: but a man of understanding walketh uprightly. | |
| 15:22 | Without counsel purposes are disappointed: but in the multitude of counselors they are established. | |
| 15:23 | A man hath joy by the answer of his mouth: and a word in due season, how good ! | |
| 15:24 | The way of life above to the wise, that he may depart from hell beneath. | |
| 15:25 | The LORD will destroy the house of the proud: but he will establish the border of the widow. | |
| 15:26 | The thoughts of the wicked an abomination to the LORD: but of the pure pleasant words. | |
| 15:27 | He that is greedy of gain troubleth his own house; but he that hateth gifts shall live. | |
| 15:28 | The heart of the righteous studieth to answer: but the mouth of the wicked poureth out evil things. | |
| 15:29 | The LORD far from the wicked: but he heareth the prayer of the righteous. | |
| 15:30 | The light of the eyes rejoiceth the heart; a good report maketh the bones fat. | |
| 15:31 | The ear that heareth the reproof of life abideth among the wise. | |
| 15:32 | He that refuseth instruction despiseth his own soul: but he that heareth reproof getteth understanding. | |
| 15:33 | The fear of the LORD the instruction of wisdom: and before honor is humility. | |
