Proverbs 15:22

Bible in Basic English 1965

Where there are no wise suggestions, purposes come to nothing; but by a number of wise guides they are made certain.

See the chapter Copy

So now, let me make a suggestion, so that you may keep your life safe and the life of your son Solomon.

Then David had discussions with the captains of thousands and the captains of hundreds and with every chief.

When there is no helping suggestion the people will have a fall, but with a number of wise guides they will be safe.

Foolish behaviour is joy to the unwise; but a man of good sense makes his way straight.

A man has joy in the answer of his mouth: and a word at the right time, how good it is!

Every purpose is put into effect by wise help: and by wise guiding make war.

For by wise guiding you will overcome in war: and in a number of wise guides there is salvation.

For every purpose there is a time and a decision, because the sorrow of man is great in him.
