Proverbs 14:15-24 NIRV

Proverbs 14:15-24

A childish person believes anything.

But a wise person thinks about how they live.

A wise person has respect for the Lord and avoids evil.

But a foolish person has a bad temper and yet feels secure.

Anyone who gets angry quickly does foolish things.

And a person who is tricky is hated.

Childish people act in keeping with their foolish ways.

But knowledge makes wise people feel like kings.

Evil people will bow down in front of good people.

And those who do wrong will bow down at the gates of those who do right.

Poor people are avoided even by their neighbors.

But rich people have many friends.

It is a sin to hate your neighbor.

But blessed is the person who is kind to those in need.

Those who plan evil go down the wrong path.

But those who plan good find love and truth.

All hard work pays off.

But if all you do is talk, you will be poor.

The wealth of wise people is their crown.

But the foolish ways of foolish people lead to what is foolish.
