  • Proverbs 22:10-16 (ESV)

    10 Drive out a scoffer, and strife will go out,

    and quarreling and abuse will cease.

    11 He who loves purity of heart,

    and whose speech is gracious, will have the king as his friend.

    12 The eyes of the Lord keep watch over knowledge,

    but he overthrows the words of the traitor.

    13 The sluggard says, “There is a lion outside!

    I shall be killed in the streets!”

    14 The mouth of forbidden women is a deep pit;

    he with whom the Lord is angry will fall into it.

    15 Folly is bound up in the heart of a child,

    but the rod of discipline drives it far from him.

    16 Whoever oppresses the poor to increase his own wealth,

    or gives to the rich, will only come to poverty.
