Proverbs 19:16-18

Evangelical Heritage Version

¹⁶ A person who keeps a command preserves his life.
One who despises his ways will die.
¹⁷ A person who is gracious to the poor lends to the Lord.
He will repay him in full.
¹⁸ Discipline your son while there is hope.
Do not make yourself responsible for his death.
