Proverbs 19:16-18

Lexham English Bible

¹⁶ He who guards commandments guards his life;^[a]
    he who is careless of his ways will be killed.
¹⁷ He who lends to Yahweh is he who is kind to the poor,
    and his benefits he will repay to him.
¹⁸ Discipline your child, for there is hope,
    but on his destruction do not set your desire.^[b]
