Proverbs
Chapters 10:17-23
English Revised Version
17He is in the way of life that heedeth correction: but he that forsaketh reproof erreth.
18He that hideth hatred is of lying lips; and he that uttereth a slander is a fool.
19In the multitude of words there wanteth not transgression: but he that refraineth his lips doeth wisely.
20The tongue of the righteous is as choice silver: the heart of the wicked is little worth.
21The lips of the righteous feed many: but the foolish die for lack of understanding.
22The blessing of the LORD, it maketh rich, and he addeth no sorrow therewith.
23It is as sport to a fool to do wickedness: and so is wisdom to a man of understanding.
