Proverbs 10:16-18

New Living Translation

¹⁶The earnings of the godly enhance their lives,
but evil people squander their money on sin.

¹⁷People who accept discipline are on the pathway to life,
but those who ignore correction will go astray.

¹⁸Hiding hatred makes you a liar;
slandering others makes you a fool.

Proverbs 10:16-18

but the earnings of the wicked are sin and death.^(B)

¹⁷Whoever heeds discipline shows the way to life,^(C)
but whoever ignores correction leads others astray.

and spreads slander is a fool.
