Proverbs 10:16-18

International Standard Version

¹⁶ Honorable wages lead^[a] to life;
    the salaries of the wicked, to retribution.
¹⁷ Whoever heeds correction is on the pathway to life,
    but someone who ignores exhortation goes astray.

¹⁸ Whoever conceals hatred is a deceitful liar,
    and whoever spreads slander is a fool.
