Wealth, Diligence, and Lasting Security
Proverbs 10:15-21
15
The substance of a rich man is the city of his strength: the fear of the poor is their poverty.
16
The work of the just is unto life: but the fruit of the wicked unto sin.
17
The way of life, to him that observeth correction: but he that forsaketh reproofs, goeth astray.
18
Lying lips hide hatred: he that uttereth reproach, is foolish.
19
In the multitude of words there shall not want sin: but he that refraineth his lips, is most wise.
20
The tongue of the just is as choice silver: but the heart of the wicked is nothing worth.
21
The lips of the just teach many: but they that are ignorant, shall die in the want of understanding.
