Thematic Bible: What destroys people
Thematic Bible
Destruction » What destroys people
The integrity and moral courage of the upright will guide them,
But the crookedness of the treacherous will destroy them.
A fool’s mouth is his ruin,
And his lips are the snare of his soul.
The violence of the wicked will [return to them and] drag them away [like fish caught in a net],
Because they refuse to act with justice.
For we brought nothing into the world, and obviously we cannot take anything out of the world; But if we have food and clothing, with these we shall be content (satisfied). But those who crave to be rich fall into temptation and a snare and into many foolish (useless, godless) and hurtful desires that plunge men into ruin and destruction and miserable perishing.
