Proverbs 13:12-14
1599 Geneva Bible
12 The hope that is deferred, is the fainting of the heart, but when the desire cometh, it is as a tree of life.
13 He that despiseth [a]the word, he shall be destroyed, but he that feareth the commandment, he shall be rewarded.
14 The instruction of a wise man is as the wellspring of life, to turn away from the snares of death.
