Proverbs 14:33-35

New International Reader's Version

³³ Wisdom rests in the hearts of those who understand what is right.
    And even among foolish people she makes herself known.

³⁴ Doing what is right lifts people up.
    But sin brings judgment to any nation.

³⁵ A king is pleased with a wise servant.
    But a servant who is full of shame stirs up the king’s anger.
