Proverbs 20:17-21

17BreadH3899 of falsehoodH8267 is sweetH6156 to a manH376; but afterwardsH310 his mouthH6310 shall be filledH4390 with gravelH2687.

18Every purposeH6098 is establishedH3559 by counselH6098: and by wiseH8458 guidanceH8458 makeH6213 thou warH4421,

19He that goeth aboutH1980 as a talebearerH7400 revealeth secretsH5475: therefore meddle notH3808 with him that openeth wide his lipsH8193.

20Whoso curseth his fatherH1 or his motherH517, his lampH5216 shall be putH1846 outH1846 in the blackest darknessH2822.

21An inheritanceH5159 may be gotten hastily at the beginningH7223; but the endH319 thereof shall notH3808 be blessedH1288.
