“House and riches are an inheritance from fathers,but a prudent wife is from Yahweh.”
Proverbs 19:14 (WEB)
Context Reading
12The king’s wrath is like the roaring of a lion,but his favor is like dew on the grass. 13A foolish son is the calamity of his father.A wife’s quarrels are a continual dripping. 14House and riches are an inheritance from fathers,but a prudent wife is from Yahweh. 15Slothfulness casts into a deep sleep.The idle soul shall suffer hunger. 16He who keeps the commandment keeps his soul,but he who is contemptuous in his ways shall die.
