Proverbs 10:16-18

American Standard Version

¹⁶ The labor of the righteous tendeth to life;
The increase of the wicked, to sin.
¹⁷ He ^[a]is in the way of life that heedeth ^[b]correction;
But he that forsaketh reproof ^[c]erreth.
¹⁸ He that hideth hatred is of lying lips;
And he that uttereth a slander is a fool.
