Thou hast broken down all his hedges; thou hast brought his strong holds to ruin.

Wise men lay up knowledge: but the mouth of the foolish is near destruction.

The rich man's wealth is his strong city: the destruction of the poor is their poverty.

The way of the LORD is strength to the upright: but destruction shall be to the workers of iniquity.

He that keepeth his mouth keepeth his life: but he that openeth wide his lips shall have destruction.

In the multitude of people is the king's honour: but in the want of people is the destruction of the prince.

A fool's mouth is his destruction, and his lips are the snare of his soul.

It is joy to the just to do judgment: but destruction shall be to the workers of iniquity.

In righteousness shalt thou be established: thou shalt be far from oppression; for thou shalt not fear: and from terror; for it shall not come near thee.

Be not a terror unto me: thou art my hope in the day of evil.

They shall howl, saying, How is it broken down! how hath Moab turned the back with shame! so shall Moab be a derision and a dismaying to all them about him.
