Chapter 12

12The wicked person desires the plunder of evil people, But the root of the righteous yields fruit. 13 An evil person is ensnared by the offense of his lips, But the righteous will escape from trouble. 14A person will be satisfied with good by the fruit of his words, And the deeds of a person’s hands will return to him.
King James Version
