20 He that handleth a matter wisely shall find good: and whoso trusteth in the Lord, happy is he.
20 Whoever gives heed to instruction prospers,
20 Whoever gives thought to the word
20 It pays to take life seriously; things work out when you trust in God.
20 He who heeds the word wisely will find good, And whoever trusts in the Lord, happy is he.
20 Those who listen to instruction will prosper; those who trust the Lord will be joyful.
Matthew Henry's Commentary on Proverbs 16:20
Commentary on Proverbs 16:19-20
(Read Proverbs 16:19-20)
Humility, though it exposes to contempt in the world, is much better than high-spiritedness, which makes God an enemy. He that understands God's word shall find good.
