Proverbs 10:13 - John Wesley's Notes

Proverbs 10:13

11 The mouth of the righteous is a well of life,
But violence covers the mouth of the wicked.

12 Hatred stirs up strife,
But ^alove covers all sins.

13 Wisdom is found on the lips of him who has understanding,
But ^aa rod is for the back of him who¹ is devoid of understanding.

14 Wise people store up knowledge,
But ^athe mouth of the foolish is near destruction.

15 The ^arich man’s wealth is his strong city;
The destruction of the poor is their poverty.

16 The labor of the righteous leads to ^alife,
The wages of the wicked to sin.
