Proverbs 9 concludes the introduction to the book of Proverbs. Wisdom, again, is calling out to us. She says that the wise will accept correction and rebuke. She warns, again, about listening to foolish counsel. It leads only to pain and death.

Proverbs 10 brings a comparison between the righteous/wise and the wicked/foolish. The righteous/wise are known for saying what is right, helping others and walking in the way and fear of the Lord. The wicked/foolish are known for lying, perverse acts and trouble. The righteous will prosper with blessings from the Lord while the wicked will come to destruction.

There are also a couple of sayings regarding being diligent at work and not being lazy.

Psalm 90 is a prayer of Moses. It acknowledges God’s power and righteousness. It also acknowledges humanity’s sin and the punishment we deserve. It prays that God show us His steadfast love and favor.
