Proverbs 16:24-32

²⁴Words well-set together is a comb of honey; health of bones is the sweetness of soul.

²⁵A way there is that seemeth rightful or right to a man; and the last things thereof lead to death.

²⁶The soul of a man travailing travaileth to himself; for his mouth compelled him.

²⁷An unwise man diggeth for evil; and fire burneth in his lips.

²⁸A wayward man raiseth strives; and a man full of words separateth princes.

²⁹A wicked man flattereth his friend; and leadeth him by a way not good.

³⁰He that thinketh shrewd things with eyes astonied, biteth his lips, and performeth evil.

³¹A crown of dignity is eld age, that shall be found in the ways of rightfulness or rightwiseness.

³²A patient man is better than a strong man; and he that is lord of his soul, is better than an overcomer of cities.
