New Testament

Proverbs 16:26-32 International Children’s Bible (ICB)

26. The worker’s hunger helps him.His desire to eat makes him work.

27. An evil person makes evil plans.And his words are like a burning fire.

28. An evil person causes trouble.And a person who gossips ruins friendships.

29. A cruel man tricks his neighbor.He leads him to do wrong.

30. Someone who winks at you is planning evil.And the one who grins at you is about to do something wrong.

31. Gray hair is like a crown of honor.You earn it by living a good life.

32. Patience is better than strength.Controlling your temper is better than capturing a city.
