Proverbs 16:25-31 Modern English Version (MEV)

25. There is a way that seems right to a man,but its end is the way of death.

26. He who labors, labors for himself,for his mouth craves it of him.

27. An ungodly man digs up evil,and in his lips there is as a burning fire.

28. A perverse man sows strife,and a whisperer separates the best of friends.

29. A violent man entices his neighbor,and leads him into the way that is not good.

30. He shuts his eyes to devise perverse things;moving his lips he brings evil to pass.

31. The gray-haired head is a crown of glory,if it is found in the way of righteousness.
