Proverbs 12:10-12

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

¹⁰ The just regardeth the lives of his beasts: but the bowels of the wicked are cruel.

¹¹ He that tilleth his land shall be satisfied with bread: but he that pursueth idleness is very foolish. He that is delighted in passing his time over wine, leaveth a reproach in his strong holds.

¹² The desire of the wicked is the fortification of evil men: but the root of the just shall prosper.
