17He is in the way of life that heedeth instruction; 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 is wise.
20The tongue of the righteous is as choice silver; the heart of the wicked is little worth.
21The lips of the righteous feed many; but the foolish die for want of understanding.
22The blessing of the LORD, it maketh rich, and toil addeth nothing thereto.
23It is as sport to a fool to do wickedness, and so is wisdom to a man of discernment.
24The fear of the wicked, it shall come upon him; and the desire of the righteous shall be granted.
25When the whirlwind passeth, the wicked is no more; but the righteous is an everlasting foundation.
26As vinegar to the teeth, and as smoke to the eyes, so is the sluggard to them that send him.
