Proverbs 21:6


Proverbs 21:5 Proverbs 21:6 (KJV) Proverbs 21:7
The thoughts of the diligent [tend] only to plenteousness; but of every one [that is] hasty only to want.
The getting of treasures by a lying tongue [is] a vanity tossed to and fro of them that seek death.
The robbery of the wicked shall destroy them; because they refuse to do judgment.
