TSK · Proverbs 10:25

But the righteous man holds to his way, and the one with clean hands grows stronger.

How often are they like straw before the wind, and like chaff swept away by a whirlwind?

He does not charge interest when he lends his money. He does not take bribes to testify against the innocent. The one who lives like this will never be shaken.

Before the kindling is even placed under your pots, he will sweep it away along with both the raw and cooked meat.

Surely you put them in slippery places; you bring them down to ruin.

when what you dread comes like a whirlwind, and disaster strikes you like a devastating storm, when distressing trouble comes on you.

No one can be established through wickedness, but a righteous root cannot be moved.

Indeed, they are barely planted; yes, they are barely sown; yes, they barely take root in the earth, and then he blows on them, causing them to dry up, and the wind carries them away like straw.

And I tell you that you are Peter, and on this rock I will build my church, and the gates of Hades will not overpower it.

In this way they will save up a treasure for themselves as a firm foundation for the future and so lay hold of what is truly life.
