Proverbs 14:14-16

Lexham English Bible

¹⁴ From his ways, the perverse of heart will be satisfied,
    and from his own,^[a] so shall a good man.
¹⁵ The simple will believe every word,
    but the clever will consider his step.
¹⁶ The wise is cautious and turns from evil,
    but the fool throws off restraint and is confident.
