16A gracious woman retaineth honour: And strong men retain riches.
17The merciful man doeth good to his own soul: But he that is cruel troubleth his own flesh.
18The wicked worketh a deceitful work: But to him that soweth righteousness shall be a sure reward.
19As righteousness tendeth to life: So he that pursueth evil pursueth it to his own death.
Proverbs 11
