Proverbs 12:10-12

New King James Version

¹⁰^(A)A righteous man regards the life of his animal,
But the tender mercies of the wicked are cruel.

¹¹^(B)He who ^[a]tills his land will be satisfied with ^(C)bread,
But he who follows ^[b]frivolity ^(D)is devoid of ^[c]understanding.

¹²The wicked covet the catch of evil men,
But the root of the righteous yields fruit.

Proverbs 12:10-12

New International Version

¹⁰The righteous care for the needs of their animals,^(A)
but the kindest acts of the wicked are cruel.

¹¹Those who work their land will have abundant food,
but those who chase fantasies have no sense.^(B)

¹²The wicked desire the stronghold of evildoers,
but the root of the righteous endures.
