Proverbs

Chapter 10
 27 Fear of the Lord lengthens one’s life,
      but the years of the wicked are cut short.

      but the expectations of the wicked come to nothing.

Proverbs

Chapter 10
 23 A fool finds pleasure in evil conduct,
       but a man of understanding delights in wisdom.
 24 What the wicked dreads will overtake him;
       what the righteous desire will be granted.

Proverbs 10:19-21

 19 When words are many, sin is not absent,
       but he who holds his tongue is wise.
 20 The tongue of the righteous is choice silver,
       but the heart of the wicked is of little value.
 21 The lips of the righteous nourish many,
       but fools die for lack of judgment.

Proverbs

Chapter 10
 17 People who accept discipline are on the pathway to life,
      but those who ignore correction will go astray.
 18 Hiding hatred makes you a liar;
      slandering others makes you a fool.
— NLT

Proverbs

Chapter 10
 15 The wealth of the rich is their fortified city,
       but poverty is the ruin of the poor.
 16 The wages of the righteous bring them life,
       but the income of the wicked brings them punishment.

Proverbs

Chapter 10
 11 The mouth of the righteous is a fountain of life,
       but violence overwhelms the mouth of the wicked.
 12 Hatred stirs up dissension,
       but love covers over all wrongs.
 13 Wisdom is found on the lips of the discerning,
       but a rod is for the back of him who lacks judgment.
 14 Wise men store up knowledge,
       but the mouth of a fool invites ruin.

      the words of the wicked conceal violent intentions.

      but the name of a wicked person rots away.
