Proverbs 14:11-25
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 14
11
The house of the wicked will be destroyed,
But the tent of the upright will flourish.
12
There is a way
which seems
right to a person,
But its end is the way of death.
13
Even in laughter the heart may be in pain,
And the end of joy may be grief.
14
One with a wayward heart will have his fill of his own ways,
But a good person will
be satisfied
with his.
15
The naive believes everything,
But the sensible person considers his steps.
16
A wise person is cautious and turns away from evil,
But a fool is arrogant and careless.
17
A quick-tempered person acts foolishly,
And a person of evil devices is hated.
18
The naive inherit foolishness,
But the sensible are crowned with knowledge.
19
The evil will bow down before the good,
And the wicked at the gates of the righteous.
20
The poor is hated even by his neighbor,
But those who love the rich are many.
21
One who despises his neighbor sins,
But one who is gracious to the poor is blessed.
22
Will they who devise evil not go astray?
But kindness and truth
will be to
those who devise good.
23
In all labor there is profit,
But mere talk
leads
only to poverty.
24
The crown of the wise is their riches,
But
the foolishness of fools is
simply
foolishness.
25
A truthful witness saves lives,
But one
who
declares lies
is
deceitful.
King James Version
Chapter 14
11
The house of the wicked shall be overthrown: but the tabernacle of the upright shall flourish.
12
There is a way which seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death.
13
Even in laughter the heart is sorrowful; and the end of that mirth is heaviness.
14
The backslider in heart shall be filled with his own ways: and a good man shall be satisfied from himself.
15
The simple believeth every word: but the prudent man looketh well to his going.
16
A wise man feareth, and departeth from evil: but the fool rageth, and is confident.
17
He that is soon angry dealeth foolishly: and a man of wicked devices is hated.
18
The simple inherit folly: but the prudent are crowned with knowledge.
19
The evil bow before the good; and the wicked at the gates of the righteous.
20
The poor is hated even of his own neighbour: but the rich hath many friends.
21
He that despiseth his neighbour sinneth: but he that hath mercy on the poor, happy is he.
22
Do they not err that devise evil? but mercy and truth shall be to them that devise good.
23
In all labour there is profit: but the talk of the lips tendeth only to penury.
24
The crown of the wise is their riches: but the foolishness of fools is folly.
25
A true witness delivereth souls: but a deceitful witness speaketh lies.
