the heart of a fool is worthless. - The blessing of the Lord makes a person rich,
and he adds no sorrow with it. - The hopes of the godly result in happiness,
but the expectations of the wicked come to nothing. - The way of the Lord is a stronghold to those with integrity,
but it destroys the wicked. - The lips of the godly speak helpful words,
but the mouth of the wicked speaks perverse words.
