Proverbs 16:24-26

New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

²⁴ Pleasant words are like a honeycomb,
    sweetness to the soul and health to the body.
²⁵ Sometimes there is a way that seems to be right,
    but in the end it is the way to death.
²⁶ The appetite of workers works for them;
    their hunger urges them on.
