Opening verses of Proverbs 19 (KJV)

19:1 Better [is] the poor that walketh in his integrity, than [he that is] perverse in his lips, and is a fool.

19:2 Also, [that] the soul [be] without knowledge, [it is] not good; and he that hasteth with [his] feet sinneth.

19:3 The foolishness of man perverteth his way: and his heart fretteth against the LORD.
