Proverbs 14:23-31

23In all labour there is profit: but the talk of the lips tendeth only to penury.

24The crown of the wise is their riches: but the folly of fools is only folly.

25A true witness delivereth souls: but he that uttereth lies causeth deceit.

26In the fear of the LORD is strong confidence: and his children shall have a place of refuge.

27The fear of the LORD is a fountain of life, to depart from the snares of death.

28In the multitude of people is the king’s glory: but in the want of people is the destruction of the prince.

29He that is slow to anger is of great understanding: but he that is hasty of spirit exalteth folly.

30A sound heart is the life of the flesh: but envy is the rottenness of the bones.

31He that oppresseth the poor reproacheth his Maker: but he that hath mercy on the needy honoureth him.
