10 He who winks the eye causes grief, and foolish lips will come to ruin.[fn]
11 The mouth of the righteous is a fountain of life, but the mouth of the wicked conceals violence.

24 What the wicked [man] dreads will overtake him, but the desire of the righteous will be granted.
25 When the whirlwind passes, the wicked are no more, but the righteous are secure forever.
26 Like vinegar to the teeth and smoke to the eyes, so [is] the slacker to those who send him.
27 The fear of the LORD prolongs life, but the years of the wicked will be cut short.
28 The hope of the righteous is joy, but the expectations of the wicked will perish.
