Proverbs 13:12-14
The Voice
12 Hope postponed grieves the heart;
but when a dream comes true, life is full and sweet.
13 The one who hates good counsel will reap failure and ruin,
but the one who reveres God’s instruction will be rewarded.
14 Wise instruction is a spring yielding a satisfied life;
those who follow it avoid the traps that lead to death.
Proverbs 13:12-14
New International Version
12 Hope deferred makes the heart sick,
but a longing fulfilled is a tree of life.(A)
