Proverbs

²³The heart of the wise instructeth his mouth, And addeth learning to his lips. ²⁴Pleasant words are as a honeycomb, Sweet to the soul, and health to the bones. ²⁵There is a way which seemeth right unto a man, But the end thereof are the ways of death. ²⁶The appetite of the laboring man laboreth for him; For his mouth urgeth him thereto. ²⁷A worthless man deviseth mischief; And in his lips there is as a scorching fire. ²⁸A perverse man scattereth abroad strife; And a whisperer separateth chief friends. ²⁹A man of violence enticeth his neighbor, And leadeth him in a way that is not good.
