Proverbs 21:15-17
New American Standard Bible 1995
15 The exercise of justice is joy for the righteous,
But is (A)terror to the workers of iniquity.
16 A man who wanders from the way of understanding
Will (B)rest in the assembly of the [a]dead.
17 He who (C)loves pleasure will become a poor man;
He who loves wine and oil will not become rich.
