12The wicked is covetous for the net of evil men; but God giveth root to the righteous.
13In the transgression of his lips is the snare of the wicked; but the righteous cometh out of distress.
14From the fruit of his mouth will a man be satisfied with what is good; and the recompense of a man's hands will be brought back unto him.
15The way of a fool is straight in his own eyes; but he that hearkeneth unto counsel is wise.
16The wrath of the fool is known on the very day; but he that concealeth the disgrace is prudent.
17He that uttereth truth announceth righteousness; but a false witness, deceit.
18There is some one that useth words which are like the thrusts of a sword; but the tongue of the wise is healing.
19The lip of truth will stand firm for ever; but only for a moment the tongue of falsehood.
