The understanding of him possessing it is a fountain of life: and the instruction of the foolish is folly.

A fountain of life the mouth of the just one: and violence shall cover the mouth of the unjust

The law of the wise one a fountain of life, to depart from the snares of death.

And he spake to them a parable, Can the blind lead the blind? shall they not both fall into the ditch?

Truly, truly, I say to you, That he hearing my word, and believing him having sent me, has eternal life, and comes not into judgment; but has passed from death to life.

The fear of Jehovah a fountain of life, to depart from the snares of death.

The tongue of the wise will make knowledge good: and the mouth of the foolish will gush forth folly.

The heart of the just one shall meditate to answer: and the mouth of the unjust shall gush out evil.

Deep waters are the words of man's mouth, the fountain of wisdom a gushing stream.

Let them go: they are blind guides of the blind. And if the blind guide the blind, both shall fall into the ditch.

Woe to you blind guides, saying, Whoever should swear by the temple, it is nothing; but whoever should swear by the gold of the temple, he is indebted!

It is the spirit making alive; the flesh profits nothing: the words which I speak to you are spirit, and are life.

Then Simon Peter answered him, Lord, to whom shall we go away? thou hast the words of eternal life.
