Proverbs 19:15 in Context — Proverbs 19
13 O filho tolo é uma desgraça ao seu pai; e brigas da esposa são [como] uma goteira duradoura.
14 A casa e as riquezas são a herança dos pais; porém a mulher prudente [vem] do SENHOR.
15 A preguiça faz cair num sono profundo; e a alma desocupada passará fome.
16 Quem guarda o mandamento cuida de sua alma; e quem despreza seus caminhos morrerá.
17 Quem faz misericórdia ao pobre empresta ao SENHOR; e ele lhe pagará sua recompensa.
