The King James Version Bible

Proverbs 10:26-32

  1. As vinegar to the teeth, and as smoke to the eyes, so is the sluggard to them that send him.

  2. The fear of the LORD prolongeth days: but the years of the wicked shall be shortened.

  3. The hope of the righteous shall be gladness: but the expectation of the wicked shall perish.

  4. The way of the LORD is strength to the upright: but destruction shall be to the workers of iniquity.

  5. The righteous shall never be removed: but the wicked shall not inhabit the earth.

  6. The mouth of the just bringeth forth wisdom: but the froward tongue shall be cut out.

  7. The lips of the righteous know what is acceptable: but the mouth of the wicked speaketh frowardness.
