Wealth, Diligence, and Lasting Security
Proverbs 10:15-21
15
The wealth of the rich is his strong city, The ruin of the poor is their poverty.
16
The wage of the righteous is for life, The increase of the wicked for sin.
17
A traveller to life is he who is keeping instruction, And whoso is forsaking rebuke is erring.
18
Whoso is covering hatred with lying lips, And whoso is bringing out an evil report is a fool.
19
In the abundance of words transgression ceaseth not, And whoso is restraining his lips is wise.
20
The tongue of the righteous is chosen silver, The heart of the wicked--as a little thing.
21
The lips of the righteous delight many, And fools for lack of heart die.
