Proverbs 16:27-33 The Message (MSG)

27. Mean people spread mean gossip;their words smart and burn.

28. Troublemakers start fights;gossips break up friendships.

29. Calloused climbers betray their very own friends;they’d stab their own grandmothers in the back.

30. A shifty eye betrays an evil intention;a clenched jaw signals trouble ahead.

31. Gray hair is a mark of distinction,the award for a God-loyal life.

32. Moderation is better than muscle,self-control better than political power.

33. Make your motions and cast your votes,but God has the final say.
