Proverbs
Chapters 10:16-22
New International Version Anglicized
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.
20The tongue of the righteous is choice silver,but the heart of the wicked is of little value.
21The lips of the righteous nourish many,but fools die for lack of sense.
22The blessing of the Lord brings wealth,without painful toil for it.
