Proverbs 10:2-15

²Treasures of wickedness profit not, And righteousness delivereth from death.

³Jehovah causeth not the soul of the righteous to hunger, And the desire of the wicked He thrusteth away.

⁴Poor is he who is working — a slothful hand, And the hand of the diligent maketh rich.

⁵Whoso is gathering in summer is a wise son, Whoso is sleeping in harvest is a son causing shame.

⁶Blessings are for the head of the righteous, And the mouth of the wicked cover doth violence.

⁷The remembrance of the righteous is for a blessing, And the name of the wicked doth rot.

⁸The wise in heart accepteth commands, And a talkative fool kicketh.

⁹Whoso is walking in integrity walketh confidently, And whoso is perverting his ways is known.

¹⁰Whoso is winking the eye giveth grief, And a talkative fool kicketh.

¹¹A fountain of life is the mouth of the righteous, And the mouth of the wicked cover doth violence.

¹²Hatred awaketh contentions, And over all transgressions love covereth.

¹³In the lips of the intelligent is wisdom found, And a rod is for the back of him who is lacking understanding.

¹⁴The wise lay up knowledge, and the mouth of a fool is near ruin.

¹⁵The wealth of the rich is his strong city, The ruin of the poor is their poverty.
