Proverbs 15:21 Context
19The way of the slouthfull man is as an hedge of thornes: but the way of the righteous is made plaine. 20A wise sonne maketh a glad father: but a foolish man despiseth his mother. 21Folly is ioy to him that is destitute of wisedome: but a man of vnderstanding walketh vprightly. 22Without counsell, purposes are disappointed: but in the multitude of counsellours they are established. 23A man hath ioy by the answere of his mouth: and a word spoken in due season, how good is it?
