Proverbs 10:20-26 The Message (MSG)

20. The speech of a good person is worth waiting for;the blabber of the wicked is worthless.

21. The talk of a good person is rich fare for many,but chatterboxes die of an empty heart.

22. God’s blessing makes life rich;nothing we do can improve on God.

23. An empty-head thinks mischief is fun,but a mindful person relishes wisdom.

24. The nightmares of the wicked come true;what the good people desire, they get.

25. When the storm is over, there’s nothing left of the wicked;good people, firm on their rock foundation, aren’t even fazed.

26. A lazy employee will give you nothing but trouble;it’s vinegar in the mouth, smoke in the eyes.
