Proverbs 10:16-18
Contemporary English Version
16 If you live right,
the reward is a good life;
if you are evil,
all you have is sin.
17 Accept correction,
and you will find life;
reject correction,
and you will miss the road.
18 You can hide your hatred
by telling lies,
but you are a fool
to spread lies.
Proverbs 10:16-18
New International Version
17 Whoever heeds discipline shows the way to life,(C)
but whoever ignores correction leads others astray.
18 Whoever conceals hatred with lying lips(D)
and spreads slander is a fool.
