Proverbs 13:12-14
New King James Version

12 Hope deferred makes the heart sick,
But (A)when the desire comes, it is a tree of life.

13 He who (B)despises the word will be destroyed,
But he who fears the commandment will be rewarded.
14 (C)The law of the wise is a fountain of life,
To turn one away from (D)the snares of death.
