New Testament

Proverbs 10:18-24 English Revised Version (ERV)

18. He that hideth hatred is of lying lips; and he that uttereth a slander is a fool.

19. In the multitude of words there wanteth not transgression: but he that refraineth his lips doeth wisely.

20. The tongue of the righteous is as choice silver: the heart of the wicked is little worth.

21. The lips of the righteous feed many: but the foolish die for lack of understanding.

22. The blessing of the LORD, it maketh rich, and he addeth no sorrow therewith.

23. It is as sport to a fool to do wickedness: and so is wisdom to a man of understanding.

24. The fear of the wicked, it shall come upon him: and the desire of the righteous shall be granted.
