Proverbs 12

21  There shall no mischief happen to the righteous; But the wicked shall be filled with evil.

22  Lying lips are an abomination to Jehovah; But they that deal truly are his delight.

23  A prudent man concealeth knowledge; But the heart of fools proclaimeth foolishness.

24  The hand of the diligent shall bear rule; But the slothful shall be put under taskwork.

25  Heaviness in the heart of a man maketh it stoop; But a good word maketh it glad.

26  The righteous is a guide to his neighbor; But the way of the wicked causeth them to err.

27  The slothful man roasteth not that which he took in hunting; But the precious substance of men `is to' the diligent.

28  In the way of righteousness is life; And in the pathway thereof there is no death.
