Proverbs 10:10

Easy To Read Version

A person who hides the truth causes trouble. A person who speaks openly makes peace. {\cf2\super [12]}

See the chapter Copy

Job, why won’t you understand?\par Why can’t you see the truth?\par

My lying enemies will not keep laughing.\par Surely my enemies will be punished\par for their secret plans. {\cf2\super [219]} \par

Wise people \{are quiet\} and learn new things. But foolish people talk and bring trouble to themselves.

A wise person obeys when someone tells him to do something. But a fool argues and brings trouble to himself.

That person winks his eye while planning something destructive. He smiles while he is planning to hurt his neighbor.

The tongue can speak words that bring life or death. And people who love to talk must be ready to accept what it brings.

He winks his eye and makes signs with his hands and feet to trick people.
