Proverbs 11:18

American Standard Version (1901)

The wicked earneth deceitful wages; But he that soweth righteousness hath a sure reward.

See the chapter Copy

He that diggeth a pit shall fall into it; and whoso breaketh through a wall, a serpent shall bite him.

And the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace for them that make peace.

He that soweth iniquity shall reap calamity; And the rod of his wrath shall fail.

And these lay wait for their own blood; They lurk privily for their own lives.

His own iniquities shall take the wicked, And he shall be holden with the cords of his sin.

that ye put away, as concerning your former manner of life, the old man, that waxeth corrupt after the lusts of deceit;

He that reapeth receiveth wages, and gathereth fruit unto life eternal; that he that soweth and he that reapeth may rejoice together.

And God dealt well with the midwives: and the people multiplied, and waxed very mighty.

The labor of the righteous tendeth to life; The increase of the wicked, to sin.

Their heart is divided; now shall they be found guilty: he will smite their altars, he will destroy their pillars.
