Proverbs 11:18-25

¹⁸The wicked earneth deceitful wages; But he that soweth righteousness hath a sure reward.

¹⁹He that is stedfast in righteousness shall attain unto life; And he that pursueth evil doeth it to his own death.

²⁰They that are perverse in heart are an abomination to Jehovah; But such as are perfect in their way are his delight.

²¹Though hand join in hand, the evil man shall not be unpunished; But the seed of the righteous shall be delivered.

²²As a ring of gold in a swine’s snout, So is a fair woman that is without discretion.

²³The desire of the righteous is only good; But the expectation of the wicked is wrath.

²⁴There is that scattereth, and increaseth yet more; And there is that withholdeth more than is meet, but it tendeth only to want.

²⁵The liberal soul shall be made fat; And he that watereth shall be watered also himself.
