Modesty and Prudence = Proverbs 14;7-8




Proverbs 14;7-8


Go from the presence of a foolish man, when thou perceivest not in him the lips of knowledge. The wisdom of the prudent is to understand his way: but the folly of fools is deceit.


Proverbs 18;15

The heart of the prudent getteth knowledge; and the ear of the wise seeketh knowledge.


Proverbs 25;6-7

Put not forth thyself in the presence of the king, and stand not in the place of great men: For better it is that it be said unto thee, Come up hither; than that thou shouldest be put lower in the presence of the prince whom thine eyes have seen.


Proverbs 27:12

A prudent man foreseeth the evil, and hideth himself; but the simple pass on, and are punished.


Luke 14;8-11

When thou art bidden of any man to a wedding, sit not down in the highest room; lest a more honourable man than thou be bidden of him; And he that bade thee and him come and say to thee, Give this man place; and thou begin with shame to take the lowest room. But when thou art bidden, go and sit down in the lowest room; that when he that bade thee cometh, he may say unto thee, Friend, go up higher: then shalt thou have worship in the presence of them that sit at meat with thee. For whosoever exalteth himself shall be abased; and he that humbleth himself shall be exalted.


I Timothy 2;9-10

In like manner also, that women adorn themselves in modest apparel, with shamefacedness and sobriety; not with broided hair, or gold, or pearls, or costly array; But, which becometh women professing godliness, with good works.


AMEN
