- It is the blessing of the LORD that makes rich, And He adds no sorrow to it.
- Doing wickedness is like sport to a fool, And so is wisdom to a man of understanding.
- What the wicked fears will come upon him, But the desire of the righteous will be granted.
- When the whirlwind passes, the wicked is no more, But the righteous has an everlasting foundation.
- Like vinegar to the teeth and smoke to the eyes, So is the lazy one to those who send him.
|
- The fear of the LORD prolongs life, But the years of the wicked will be shortened.
- The hope of the righteous is gladness, But the expectation of the wicked perishes.
- The way of the LORD is a stronghold to the upright, But ruin to the workers of iniquity.
- The righteous will never be shaken, But the wicked will not dwell in the land.
- The mouth of the righteous flows with wisdom, But the perverted tongue will be cut out.
|
- The lips of the righteous bring forth what is acceptable, But the mouth of the wicked what is perverted.
