Proverbs 20:19-21
GOD’S WORD Translation
19 Whoever goes around as a gossip tells secrets.
Do not associate with a person whose mouth is always open.
20 The lamp of the person who curses his father and mother
will be snuffed out in total darkness.[a]
21 An inheritance quickly obtained in the beginning
will never be blessed in the end.
Footnotes
- 20:20 Or “snuffed out as darkness approaches.”
