- Those who guard their lips preserve their lives,
but those who speak rashly will come to ruin. - A person’s riches may ransom their life,
but the poor cannot respond to threatening rebukes. - Where there is strife, there is pride,
but wisdom is found in those who take advice. - Dishonest money dwindles away,
but whoever gathers money little by little makes it grow. - Hope deferred makes the heart sick,
but a longing fulfilled is a tree of life. - Walk with the wise and become wise,
for a companion of fools suffers harm.
When God raised up his servant, he sent him first to you to bless you by turning each of you from your wicked ways. Do not let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is helpful for building others up according to their needs, that it may benefit those who listen.Next verse!With image
