- Proverbs 2:6-8 - God gives out Wisdom free, is plainspoken in Knowledge and Understanding. He's a rich mine of Common Sense for those who live well, a personal bodyguard to the candid and sincere. He keeps his eye on all who live honestly, and pays special attention to his loyally committed ones.
- Proverbs 3:27 - Never walk away from someone who deserves help; your hand is God's hand for that person.
- Proverbs 10:2,3 - ... an honest life is immortal. God won't starve an honest soul, but he frustrates the appetites of the wicked.
- Proverbs 10:16 - The wage of a good person is exuberant life;
- Proverbs 11:24 - The world of the generous gets larger and larger; the world of the stingy gets smaller and smaller.
- Proverbs 11:28 - ... a God-shaped life is a flourishing tree.
- Proverbs 14:26 - The fear of God builds up confidence, and makes a world safe for your children.
- Proverbs 14:29 - Slowness to anger makes for deep understanding; a quick-tempered person stockpiles stupidity. (also the NKJV - But he who is impulsive exalts folly.)
- Proverbs 21:30 - Nothing clever, nothing conceived, nothing contrived, can get the better of God. (also the NKJV - There is no wisdom or understanding or counsel against the Lord.)
- Proverbs 29:25 - The fear of human opinion disables; trusting in God protects you from that.
