Proverbs 10:15-17

World English Bible

¹⁵ The rich man’s wealth is his strong city.
    The destruction of the poor is their poverty.
¹⁶ The labor of the righteous leads to life.
    The increase of the wicked leads to sin.
¹⁷ He is in the way of life who heeds correction,
    but he who forsakes reproof leads others astray.
