Proverbs 14:22


Proverbs 14:21 Proverbs 14:22 (KJV) Proverbs 14:23
He that despiseth his neighbour sinneth: but he that hath mercy on the poor, happy [is] he.
Do they not err that devise evil? but mercy and truth [shall be] to them that devise good.
In all labour there is profit: but the talk of the lips [tendeth] only to penury.
