Proverbs 10:17
King James VersionSource notes
“He the way of life that keepeth instruction: but he that refuseth reproof erreth.”
Context
14Wise lay up knowledge: but the mouth of the foolish near destruction.
15The rich man’s wealth his strong city: the destruction of the poor their poverty.
16The labour of the righteous to life: the fruit of the wicked to sin.
17He the way of life that keepeth instruction: but he that refuseth reproof erreth.
18He that hideth hatred lying lips, and he that uttereth a slander, a fool.
19In the multitude of words there wanteth not sin: but he that refraineth his lips wise.
20The tongue of the just choice silver: the heart of the wicked little worth.
