Proverbs 21:1-3 ASV

He that followeth after righteousness and kindness Findeth life, righteousness, and honor.

Proverbs 21:23 ASV

Whoso keepeth his mouth and his tongue Keepeth his soul from troubles.

Proverbs 21:30-31 ASV

There is no wisdom nor understanding Nor counsel against Jehovah. The horse is prepared against the day of battle; But victory is of Jehovah.
