Proverbs 10:21-32, GNB
[21]A good person’s words will benefit many people, but you can kill yourself with stupidity.
[22]It is the Lord’s blessing that makes you wealthy. Hard work can make you no richer.
[23]It is foolish to enjoy doing wrong. Intelligent people take pleasure in wisdom.
[24]The righteous get what they want, but the wicked will get what they fear most.
[25]Storms come, and the wicked are blown away, but honest people are always safe.
[26]Never get a lazy person to do something for you; he will be as irritating as vinegar on your teeth or smoke in your eyes.
[27]Obey the Lord, and you will live longer. The wicked die before their time.
[28]The hopes of good people lead to joy, but wicked people can look forward to nothing.
[29]The Lord protects honest people, but destroys those who do wrong.
[30]Righteous people will always have security, but the wicked will not survive in the land.
[31]Righteous people speak wisdom, but the tongue that speaks evil will be stopped.
[32]Righteous people know the kind thing to say, but the wicked are always saying things that hurt.
