Proverbs Chapter 14King James Version2: He that walketh in his uprightness feareth the LORD: but he that is perverse in his ways despiseth him. 3: In the mouth of the foolish is a rod of pride: but the lips of the wise shall preserve them. 4: Where no oxen are, the crib is clean: but much increase is by the strength of the ox. 5: A faithful witness will not lie: but a false witness will utter lies. 6: A scorner seeketh wisdom, and findeth it not: but knowledge is easy unto him that understandeth. 7: Go from the presence of a foolish man, when thou perceivest not 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 make a mock at sin: but among the righteous there is favour. 10: The heart knoweth his own bitterness; and a stranger doth not intermeddle with his joy. 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. 26: In the fear of the LORD is strong confidence: and his children shall have a place of refuge. 27: The fear of the LORD is a fountain of life, to depart from the snares of death. 28: In the multitude of people is the king's honour: but in the want of people is the destruction of the prince. 29: He that is slow to wrath is of great understanding: but he that is hasty of spirit exalteth folly. 30: A sound heart is the life of the flesh: but envy the rottenness of the bones. 31: He that oppresseth the poor reproacheth his Maker: but he that honoureth him hath mercy on the poor. 32: The wicked is driven away in his wickedness: but the righteous hath hope in his death. 33: Wisdom resteth in the heart of him that hath understanding: but that which is in the midst of fools is made known. 34: Righteousness exalteth a nation: but sin is a reproach to any people. 35: The king's favour is toward a wise servant: but his wrath is against him that causeth shame.
