TSK · Proverbs 10:21

I have not departed from the commands of his lips; I have treasured the words of his mouth more than my allotted portion.

The godly speak wise words and promote justice.

Therefore they will eat from the fruit of their way, and they will be stuffed full of their own counsel.

in order to safeguard discretion, and that your lips may guard knowledge.

He will die because there was no discipline; because of the greatness of his folly he will reel.

Speech that heals is like a life-giving tree, but a perverse speech breaks the spirit.

What’s the point of a fool having money in hand to buy wisdom, when his head is empty?

The words of the sages are like prods, and the collected sayings are like firmly fixed nails; they are given by one shepherd.

I will give you leaders who will be faithful to me. They will lead you with knowledge and insight.

You have destroyed my people by failing to acknowledge me! Because you refuse to acknowledge me, I will reject you as my priests. Because you reject the law of your God, I will reject your descendants.

Now this is the basis for judging: that the light has come into the world and people loved the darkness rather than the light, because their deeds were evil.

And just as they did not see fit to acknowledge God, God gave them over to a depraved mind, to do what should not be done.
