Proverbs 14:23-25
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
23 In all labor there is profit,
but mere talk tends only to loss.
24 The crown of the wise is wealth;
the diadem of fools is folly.
25 The truthful witness saves lives,
but whoever utters lies is a betrayer.

箴言 14:23-25
Revised Chinese Union Version (Traditional Script) Shen Edition
23 任何勤勞總有收穫;
僅耍嘴皮必致窮乏。
24 智慧人的冠冕是富有智慧;
愚昧人的愚昧終究是愚昧。
25 誠實作證,救人性命;
口吐謊言是詭詐。
