Ordspråkene 15,26

Words and speechPurity

24 Livets vei går oppover for den kloke, for å holde dem fra å stige ned til dødsriket.

25 Herren vil rive ned de stoltes hus, men Han vil beskytte enkens grense.

Herren finner onde planer avskyelige, men nådige ord er rene.

27 Den grådige bringer ulykke over sitt hus, men den som hater bestikkelser skal leve.

28 Den rettferdiges hjerte tenker over hvordan man skal svare, men de ondes munn utgyter ondskap.
