Proverbs 20:12


Proverbs 20:11 Proverbs 20:12 (KJV) Proverbs 20:13
Even a child is known by his doings, whether his work [be] pure, and whether [it be] right.
The hearing ear, and the seeing eye, the LORD hath made even both of them.
Love not sleep, lest thou come to poverty; open thine eyes, [and] thou shalt be satisfied with bread.
