Proverbs 12:23


Proverbs 12:22 Proverbs 12:23 (KJV) Proverbs 12:24
Lying lips [are] abomination to the LORD: but they that deal truly [are] his delight.
A prudent man concealeth knowledge: but the heart of fools proclaimeth foolishness.
The hand of the diligent shall bear rule: but the slothful shall be under tribute.
