Proverbs 16:23-27 Young's Literal Translation Of The Holy Bible (YLT98)

23. The heart of the wise causeth his mouth to act wisely, And by his lips he increaseth learning,

24. Sayings of pleasantness [are] a honeycomb, Sweet to the soul, and healing to the bone.

25. There is a way right before a man, And its latter end--ways of death.

26. A labouring man hath laboured for himself, For his mouth hath caused [him] to bend over it.

27. A worthless man is preparing evil, And on his lips--as a burning fire.
