Proverbs 14:21-23

New American Standard Bible 1995

²¹ He who ^(A)despises his neighbor sins,
But ^(B)happy is he who is gracious to the ^[a]poor.
²² Will they not go astray who ^(C)devise evil?
But kindness and truth will be to those who devise good.
²³ In all labor there is profit,
But ^[b]mere talk leads only to poverty.
