Proverbs
Chapters 10:13-19
New International Version Anglicized
13Wisdom is found on the lips of the discerning,but a rod is for the back of one who has no sense.
14The wise store up knowledge,but the mouth of a fool invites ruin.
15The wealth of the rich is their fortified city,but poverty is the ruin of the poor.
16The wages of the righteous is life,but the earnings of the wicked are sin and death.
17Whoever heeds discipline shows the way to life,but whoever ignores correction leads others astray.
18Whoever conceals hatred with lying lipsand spreads slander is a fool.
19Sin is not ended by multiplying words,but the prudent hold their tongues.
