This is not a list of all my favorites nor will I attempt to explain them. Perhaps at a later date I may but for now I just wanted to share mostly random verses because the wisdom of proverbs is extensive. This list is from a notebook which I write in as I go through my daily proverbs readings.

Proverbs 4:13-17 Become strong in discipline, do not let go; watch over her, for she is your life. Do not enter the path of the wrong, and do not walk in the way of evil-doers. Avoid it, do not pass by it; Turn away from it and pass on. For they do not sleep unless they have done evil. And their sleep is taken away unless they make someone fall. For they have eaten the bread of the wrongdoing, and they drink the wine of violence.

Proverbs 5:23 He dies for lack of discipline, And in the greatness of his folly he goes astray.

Proverbs 13:18 Poverty and shame are for him who ignores discipline.

Proverbs 13:22 A good man leaves an inheritance to his children’s children. But the wealth of the sinner is stored up for the righteous.
