Proverbs 12:22-24

International Standard Version

²² Deceitful speech is reprehensible to the Lord,
    but those who act faithfully are his delight.

²³ A prudent man keeps what he knows to himself,^[a]
    but the hearts of fools shout forth their foolishness.
²⁴ The diligent will take control,
    but the lazy will be put to forced labor.
