Proverbs 12:19-21
International Standard Version

19 A truthful saying[a] is trusted forever,
    but the liar[b] only for a moment.
20 Deceit is at home[c] in the heart of those who plan evil,
    but those who promote peace rejoice.

21 No harm overwhelms the righteous,
    but the wicked overflow with trouble.
