Proverbs 19:1-3
Tree of Life Version
Better to be Poor with Integrity
19 Better to be poor, walking with integrity,
than be a fool whose lips are corrupt.
2 Zeal without knowledge is not good,[a]
or to act hastily and miss the way.
3 A man’s folly undermines his way,
and his heart rages against Adonai.

King James Version
19 Better is the poor that walketh in his integrity, than he that is perverse in his lips, and is a fool.
2 Also, that the soul be without knowledge, it is not good; and he that hasteth with his feet sinneth.
3 The foolishness of man perverteth his way: and his heart fretteth against the Lord.
