Proverbs 10:19-24

¹⁹By a multitude of words you shall not escape sin; but if you refrain your lips you will be prudent.

²⁰The tongue of the just is tried silver; but the heart of the ungodly shall fail.

²¹The lips of the righteous know sublime truths: but the foolish die in lack.

²²The blessing of the Lord is upon the head of the righteous; it enriches him, and grief of heart shall not be added to it.

²³A fool does mischief in sport; but wisdom brings forth prudence for a man.

²⁴The ungodly is engulfed in destruction; but the desire of the righteous is acceptable.
