Do Your Best, Prepare for the Worst Proverbs 21:9-31

 ⁹ Better to live alone in a tumbledown shack
   than share a mansion with a nagging spouse.

 ¹⁰ Wicked souls love to make trouble;
   they feel nothing for friends and neighbors.

 ¹¹ Simpletons only learn the hard way,
   but the wise learn by listening.

 ¹² A God-loyal person will see right through the wicked
   and undo the evil they've planned.

 ¹³ If you stop your ears to the cries of the poor,
   your cries will go unheard, unanswered.

 ¹⁴ A quietly given gift soothes an irritable person;
   a heartfelt present cools a hot temper.

 ¹⁵ Good people celebrate when justice triumphs,
   but for the workers of evil it's a bad day.

 ¹⁶ Whoever wanders off the straight and narrow
   ends up in a congregation of ghosts.

 ¹⁷ You're addicted to thrills? What an empty life!
   The pursuit of pleasure is never satisfied.

 ¹⁸ What a bad person plots against the good, boomerangs;
   the plotter gets it in the end.

 ¹⁹ Better to live in a tent in the wild
   than with a cross and petulant spouse.

 ²⁰ Valuables are safe in a wise person's home;
   fools put it all out for yard sales.

 ²¹ Whoever goes hunting for what is right and kind
   finds life itself—glorious life!

 ²² One sage entered a whole city of armed soldiers—
   their trusted defenses fell to pieces!

 ²³ Watch your words and hold your tongue;
   you'll save yourself a lot of grief.

 ²⁴ You know their names—Brash, Impudent, Blasphemer—
   intemperate hotheads, every one.

 ²⁵ Lazy people finally die of hunger
   because they won't get up and go to work.

 ²⁶ Sinners are always wanting what they don't have;
   the God-loyal are always giving what they do have.

 ²⁷ Religious performance by the wicked stinks;
   it's even worse when they use it to get ahead.

 ²⁸ A lying witness is unconvincing;
   a person who speaks truth is respected.

 ²⁹ Unscrupulous people fake it a lot;
   honest people are sure of their steps.

 ³⁰ Nothing clever, nothing conceived, nothing contrived,
   can get the better of God.

 ³¹ Do your best, prepare for the worst—
   then trust God to bring victory.
