Proverbs 10:17


← Proverbs 10:16 Proverbs 10:17 (KJV) Proverbs 10:18 →
The labour of the righteous tendeth to life: the fruit of the wicked to sin.
He is in the way of life that keepeth instruction: but he that refuseth reproof erreth.
He that hideth hatred with lying lips, and he that uttereth a slander, is a fool.
