The Message
Proverbs 14:33-35
The Message
33 Lady Wisdom is at home in an understanding heart—
fools never even get to say hello.
34 God-devotion makes a country strong;
God-avoidance leaves people weak.
35 Diligent work gets a warm commendation;
shiftless work earns an angry rebuke.
Proverbs 14:33-35
New International Version
Proverbs 14:33-35
New International Version
33 Wisdom reposes in the heart of the discerning(A)
and even among fools she lets herself be known.[a]
34 Righteousness exalts a nation,(B)
but sin condemns any people.
35 A king delights in a wise servant,
but a shameful servant arouses his fury.(C)
