Proverbs 20:19-26

¹⁹He who goeth about as a tale-bearer revealeth secrets; Therefore associate not with him who keepeth open his lips.

²⁰Whoso curseth his father or his mother, His lamp shall be put out in midnight darkness.

²¹A possession may be gotten hastily in the beginning, But in the end it will not be blessed.

²²Say not thou, “I will repay evil;” Wait on the LORD, and he will help thee.

²³Divers weights are an abomination to the LORD, And a false balance is not good.

²⁴A man's steps are from the LORD; How, then, can a man understand his way?

²⁵It is a snare to a man to utter a vow rashly, And after vows to consider.

²⁶A wise king scattereth the wicked like chaff, And bringeth over them the wheel.
