Proverbs 11:20-22
The Message
20 God can’t stand deceivers,
but oh how he relishes integrity.
21 Count on this: The wicked won’t get off scot-free,
and God’s loyal people will triumph.
22 Like a gold ring in a pig’s snout
is a beautiful face on an empty head.
Proverbs 11:20-22
New International Version
20 The Lord detests those whose hearts are perverse,(A)
but he delights(B) in those whose ways are blameless.(C)
21 Be sure of this: The wicked will not go unpunished,
but those who are righteous will go free.(D)
22 Like a gold ring in a pig’s snout
is a beautiful woman who shows no discretion.
