Proverbs 14:13-15

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

¹³ Even in laughter the heart is sorrowful, and the end of mirth is heaviness and grief.

¹⁴ The backslider in heart [from God and from fearing God] shall be filled with [the fruit of] his own ways, and a good man shall be satisfied with [the fruit of] his ways [with the holy thoughts and actions which his heart prompts and in which he delights].

¹⁵ The simpleton believes every word he hears, but the prudent man looks and considers well where he is going.
