Proverbs

The mouth of the just brings forth wisdom, but the froward tongue shall be cut out.

The righteous shall never be removed, but the wicked shall not inhabit the earth.

The way of Jehovah is strength to the upright, but destruction shall be to the workers of iniquity.

The hope of the righteous shall be gladness, but the expectation of the wicked shall perish.

The fear of Jehovah prolongs days, but the years of the wicked shall be shortened.

As vinegar to the teeth and as smoke to the eyes, so is the sluggard to them that send him.

As the whirlwind passes, so is the wicked no more: But the righteous is an everlasting foundation.

The fear of the wicked shall come upon him, but the desire of the righteous shall be granted.

It is as sport to a fool to do mischief, but a man of understanding has wisdom.

The lips of the righteous feed many, but fools die for want of wisdom.
