Proverbs 15:4-6

EasyEnglish Bible

⁴ Kind words are like the fruit of a tree that gives life.
    But words that are not honest make people sad and weak.
⁵ A fool hates his father's rules.
    But a wise child learns when his father warns him.
⁶ Righteous people have many valuable things in their homes.
    But the riches of wicked people bring trouble to them.
