Proverbs 10:14-16

New International Reader's Version

¹⁴ Wise people store up knowledge.
    But the mouths of foolish people destroy them.

¹⁵ The wealth of rich people is like a city that makes them feel safe.
    But having nothing destroys those who are poor.

¹⁶ People who do what is right earn life.
    But sinners earn sin and death.
