Proverbs 12:9-11
Names of God Bible
9 Better to be unimportant and have a slave
than to act important and have nothing to eat.
10 A righteous person cares even about the life of his animals,
but the compassion of wicked people is nothing but cruelty.
11 Whoever works his land will have plenty to eat,
but the one who chases unrealistic dreams has no sense.
Proverbs 12:9-11
New International Version
9 Better to be a nobody and yet have a servant
than pretend to be somebody and have no food.
10 The righteous care for the needs of their animals,(A)
but the kindest acts of the wicked are cruel.
11 Those who work their land will have abundant food,
but those who chase fantasies have no sense.(B)
