Proverbs 10:6-8

The Voice

⁶ Blessings come to those who do what is right,
    but words spoken by the wicked cover up violent schemes.
⁷ The memory of one who lived with integrity brings joy,
    but the legacy of a wrongdoer will rot away.
⁸ The wise at heart will gladly obey direction,
    but one who fills the air with meaningless talk will fall into ruin.
