Proverbs 13:12-14

Darby Translation

¹² Hope deferred maketh the heart sick; but the desire [that] cometh to pass is a tree of life.

¹³ Whoso despiseth the word shall be held by it; but he that feareth the commandment shall be rewarded.

¹⁴ The teaching of the wise [man] is a fountain of life, to turn away from the snares of death.
