PROVERBS 10:14-19

¹⁴Wise men lay up knowledge: but the mouth of the foolish is a present destruction.

¹⁵The rich man’s wealth is his strong city: the destruction of the poor is their poverty.

¹⁶The labour of the righteous tendeth to life; the increase of the wicked to sin.

¹⁷He is in the way of life that heedeth correction: but he that forsaketh reproof erreth.

¹⁸He that hideth hatred is of lying lips; and he that uttereth a slander is a fool.

¹⁹In the multitude of words there wanteth not transgression: but he that refraineth his lips doeth wisely.
