Proverbs 10:15-17

New American Standard Bible 1995

¹⁵ The ^(A)rich man’s wealth is his ^[a]fortress,
The ^(B)ruin of the poor is their poverty.
¹⁶ The ^[b](C)wages of the righteous is life,
The income of the wicked, punishment.
¹⁷ He ^(D)is on the path of life who heeds instruction,
But he who ignores reproof goes astray.
