         care.

     LORD: but the prayer of the upright [is] his delight.

         most to be accepted.

          admonished.

          from the eyes of God, much less man's thoughts.

Pr 15:19
15:19 The way of the slothful [man is] as an hedge of {e}

          dares not go forward.

      (h) That is, wholesome and profitable to the hearers.

Pr 15:31
15:31 The ear that heareth the {i} reproof of life abideth among
