Proverbs 22:12-14

Modern English Version

¹² The eyes of the Lord preserve knowledge,
    and He overthrows the words of the transgressor.

¹³ The slothful man says, “There is a lion without!
    I will be slain in the streets!”

¹⁴ The mouth of an immoral woman is a deep pit;
    he who is detested by the Lord will fall therein.
