Proverbs 16:26-1964 ·Bible in Basic English

“The desire of the working man is working for him, for his need of food is driving him on. A good-for-nothing man is a designer of evil, and in his lips there is a burning fire. A man of twisted purposes is a cause of fighting everywhere: and he who says evil secretly makes trouble between friends. A violent man puts desire of evil into his neighbour's mind, and makes him go in a way which is not good. He whose eyes are shut is a man of twisted purposes, and he who keeps his lips shut tight makes evil come about. The grey head is a crown of glory, if it is seen in the way of righteousness. He who is slow to be angry is better than a man of war, and he who has control over his spirit than he who takes a town. A thing may be put to the decision of chance, but it comes about through the Lord.”
