The godly and the wicked contrasted – Part 16

“Every wise woman buildeth her house: But the foolish plucketh it down with her hands.

He that walketh in his uprightness feareth the LORD: But he that is perverse in his ways despiseth him.

In the mouth of the foolish is a rod of pride: But the lips of the wise shall preserve them.

Where no oxen are, the crib is clean: But much increase is by the strength of the ox.

A faithful witness will not lie: But a false witness will utter lies.

A scorner seeketh wisdom, and findeth it not: But knowledge is easy unto him that understandeth.

Go from the presence of a foolish man, When thou perceivest not in him the lips of knowledge.

The wisdom of the prudent is to understand his way: But the folly of fools is deceit.

Fools make a mock at sin: But among the righteous there is favour.

The heart knoweth his own bitterness; And a stranger doth not intermeddle with his joy.

The house of the wicked shall be overthrown: But the tabernacle of the upright shall flourish.

There is a way which seemeth right unto a man, But the end thereof are the ways of death.”
‭‭Proverbs‬ ‭14‬:‭1‬-‭12‬ ‭KJV‬‬
