Proverbs 10:16

Treasury of Scripture Knowledge

The labour of the righteous tendeth to life: the fruit of the wicked to sin.

The fruit of the just a tree of life; and he taking souls is wise.

Say to the just, that it is good that they shall eat the fruit of their doings.

Work not for food perishing, but food remaining to eternal life, which the Son of man will give you: for him God the Father sealed.

Wherefore, my beloved brethren, be stable, unmoved, abounding in the work of the Lord always, knowing that our fatigue is not in vain in the Lord.

Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatever a man should sow, that also shall he reap.

For God is not unjust to forget your work and fatigue of love, which ye showed to his name, having served to the holy ones, and serving.

So every good tree makes good fruits; but the rotten tree makes evil fruits.

Either make the tree good, and its fruit good; or make the tree rotten, and its fruit rotten; for the tree is known by its fruit.

For from the heart come forth evil reflections, slaughters, adulteries, fornications, thefts, false testimonies, defamations:

For the purchasing the provisions of sin, death; and the grace of God, life eternal in Christ Jesus our Lord.

And this word as a gangrene, will have an eating ulcer: of whom is Hymeneus and Philetus;

And evil men and impostors shall proceed to worse, deceiving, and being deceived.

In the way of justice is life; and the way of its beaten path not death.
