Proverbs 15:26-30

Evil plans are an abomination to the Lord, But pleasant words are pure.

He who profits illicitly troubles his own house, But he who hates bribes will live.

The heart of the righteous ponders how to answer, But the mouth of the wicked pours out evil things.

The Lord is far from the wicked, But He hears the prayer of the righteous.

Bright eyes gladden the heart; Good news refreshes the bones.
