Proverbs 14

28. A growing population is a king's glory; a dwindling nation is his doom.
29. A wise man controls his temper. He knows that anger causes mistakes.
30. A relaxed attitude lengthens a man's life; jealousy rots it away.
31. Anyone who oppresses the poor is insulting God who made them. To help the poor is to honor God.
32. The godly have a refuge when they die, but the wicked are crushed by their sins.
33. Wisdom is enshrined in the hearts of men of common sense, but it must shout loudly before fools will hear it.
34. Godliness exalts a nation, but sin is a reproach to any people.
35. A king rejoices in servants who know what they are doing; he is angry with those who cause trouble.
