Proverbs 10:11-13

New American Standard Bible 1995

¹¹ The ^(A)mouth of the righteous is a fountain of life,
But ^(B)the mouth of the wicked conceals violence.
¹² Hatred stirs up strife,
But ^(C)love covers all transgressions.
¹³ On ^(D)the lips of the discerning, wisdom is found,
But ^(E)a rod is for the back of him who lacks ^[a]understanding.
