# Proverbs 14 (New King James Version)
|
|
The Ways of Life and Death
|
|
|
|
##### Chapter 14
|
|
###### 1 The wise woman builds her house,
|
|
But the foolish pulls it down with her hands.
|
|
|
|
###### 2 He who walks in his uprightness fears the Lord,
|
|
But _he who is_ perverse in his ways despises Him.
|
|
|
|
###### 3 In the mouth of a fool _is_ a rod of pride,
|
|
But the lips of the wise will preserve them.
|
|
|
|
###### 4 Where no oxen _are,_ the trough _is_ clean;
|
|
But much increase _comes_ by the strength of an ox.
|
|
|
|
###### 5 A faithful witness does not lie,
|
|
But a false witness will utter lies.
|
|
|
|
###### 6 A scoffer seeks wisdom and does not _find it,_
|
|
But knowledge _is_ easy to him who understands.
|
|
|
|
###### 7 Go from the presence of a foolish man,
|
|
When you do not perceive _in him_ the lips of knowledge.
|
|
|
|
###### 8 The wisdom of the prudent _is_ to understand his way,
|
|
But the folly of fools _is_ deceit.
|
|
|
|
###### 9 Fools mock at sin,
|
|
But among the upright _there is_ favor.
|
|
|
|
###### 10 The heart knows its own bitterness,
|
|
And a stranger does not share its joy.
|
|
|
|
###### 11 The house of the wicked will be overthrown,
|
|
But the tent of the upright will flourish.
|
|
|
|
###### 12 There is a way _that seems_ right to a man,
|
|
But its end _is_ the way of death.
|
|
|
|
###### 13 Even in laughter the heart may sorrow,
|
|
And the end of mirth _may be_ grief.
|
|
|
|
###### 14 The backslider in heart will be filled with his own ways,
|
|
But a good man _will be satisfied_ from above.
|
|
|
|
###### 15 The simple believes every word,
|
|
But the prudent considers well his steps.
|
|
|
|
###### 16 A wise _man_ fears and departs from evil,
|
|
But a fool rages and is self-confident.
|
|
|
|
###### 17 A quick-tempered _man_ acts foolishly,
|
|
And a man of wicked intentions is hated.
|
|
|
|
###### 18 The simple inherit folly,
|
|
But the prudent are crowned with knowledge.
|
|
|
|
###### 19 The evil will bow before the good,
|
|
And the wicked at the gates of the righteous.
|
|
|
|
###### 20 The poor _man_ is hated even by his own neighbor,
|
|
But the rich _has_ many friends.
|
|
|
|
###### 21 He who despises his neighbor sins;
|
|
But he who has mercy on the poor, happy _is_ he.
|
|
|
|
###### 22 Do they not go astray who devise evil?
|
|
But mercy and truth _belong_ to those who devise good.
|
|
|
|
###### 23 In all labor there is profit,
|
|
But idle chatter _leads_ only to poverty.
|
|
|
|
###### 24 The crown of the wise is their riches,
|
|
_But_ the foolishness of fools _is_ folly.
|
|
|
|
###### 25 A true witness delivers souls,
|
|
But a deceitful _witness_ speaks lies.
|
|
|
|
###### 26 In the fear of the Lord _there is_ strong confidence,
|
|
And His children will have a place of refuge.
|
|
|
|
###### 27 The fear of the Lord _is_ a fountain of life,
|
|
To turn _one_ away from the snares of death.
|
|
|
|
###### 28 In a multitude of people _is_ a king's honor,
|
|
But in the lack of people _is_ the downfall of a prince.
|
|
|
|
###### 29 _He who is_ slow to wrath has great understanding,
|
|
But _he who is_ impulsive exalts folly.
|
|
|
|
###### 30 A sound heart _is_ life to the body,
|
|
But envy _is_ rottenness to the bones.
|
|
|
|
###### 31 He who oppresses the poor reproaches his Maker,
|
|
But he who honors Him has mercy on the needy.
|
|
|
|
###### 32 The wicked is banished in his wickedness,
|
|
But the righteous has a refuge in his death.
|
|
|
|
###### 33 Wisdom rests in the heart of him who has understanding,
|
|
But _what is_ in the heart of fools is made known.
|
|
|
|
###### 34 Righteousness exalts a nation,
|
|
But sin _is_ a reproach to _any_ people.
|
|
|
|
###### 35 The king's favor _is_ toward a wise servant,
|
|
But his wrath _is against_ him who causes shame.
