Proverbs 10:11-13

New King James Version

¹¹ The mouth of the righteous is a well of life,
But violence covers the mouth of the wicked.

¹² Hatred stirs up strife,
But ^(A)love covers all sins.

¹³ Wisdom is found on the lips of him who has understanding,
But ^(B)a rod is for the back of him who ^[a]is devoid of understanding.
