Proverbs 12:13-15

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

¹³ For the sins of the lips ruin draweth nigh to the evil man: but the just shall escape out of distress.

¹⁴ By the fruit of his own mouth shall a man be filled with good things, and according to the works of his hands it shall be repaid him.

¹⁵ The way of a fool is right in his own eyes: but he that is wise hearkeneth unto counsels.
