New Testament

Proverbs 10:7-14 American Standard Version (ASV)

7. The memory of the righteous is blessed; But the name of the wicked shall rot.

8. The wise in heart will receive commandments; But a prating fool shall fall.

9. He that walketh uprightly walketh surely; But he that perverteth his ways shall be known.

10. He that winketh with the eye causeth sorrow; But a prating fool shall fall.

11. The mouth of the righteous is a fountain of life; But violence covereth the mouth of the wicked.

12. Hatred stirreth up strifes; But love covereth all transgressions.

13. In the lips of him that hath discernment wisdom is found; But a rod is for the back of him that is void of understanding.

14. Wise men lay up knowledge; But the mouth of the foolish is a present destruction.
