Proverbs 15:27


Proverbs 15:26 Proverbs 15:27 (KJV) Proverbs 15:28
The thoughts of the wicked [are] an abomination to the LORD: but [the words] of the pure [are] pleasant words.
He that is greedy of gain troubleth his own house; but he that hateth gifts shall live.
The heart of the righteous studieth to answer: but the mouth of the wicked poureth out evil things.
