14 (A)A man will be satisfied with good by the fruit of his mouth,(B)And the recompense of a man’s hands will be rendered to him.
14 Well-spoken words bring satisfaction; well-done work has its own reward.
21 (A)Death and life are in the power of the tongue,And those who love it will eat its fruit.
21 Words kill, words give life; they’re either poison or fruit—you choose.
