Proverbs 10:15-17

Authorized (King James) Version

¹⁵ The rich man’s wealth is his strong city:
    the destruction of the poor is their poverty.

¹⁶ The labour of the righteous tendeth to life:
    the fruit of the wicked to sin.

¹⁷ He is in the way of life that keepeth instruction:
    but he that refuseth reproof erreth.
