Contemporary English Version
Proverbs 10:18-20
Contemporary English Version
18 You can hide your hatred
by telling lies,
but you are a fool
to spread lies.
19 You will say the wrong thing
if you talk too much—
so be sensible and watch
what you say.
20 The words of a good person
are like pure silver,
but the thoughts
of an evil person
are almost worthless.
Proverbs 10:18-20
New International Version
Proverbs 10:18-20
New International Version
18 Whoever conceals hatred with lying lips(A)
and spreads slander is a fool.
19 Sin is not ended by multiplying words,
but the prudent hold their tongues.(B)
20 The tongue of the righteous is choice silver,
but the heart of the wicked is of little value.
