Proverbs 28:5-7
New International Reader's Version
5 Sinful people don’t understand what is right.
But those who worship the Lord understand it completely.
6 It is better to be poor and live without blame
than to be rich and follow a crooked path.
7 A child who understands what is right learns from instruction.
But a child who likes to eat too much brings shame on his father.
Proverbs 28:5-7
New International Version
5 Evildoers do not understand what is right,
but those who seek the Lord understand it fully.
6 Better the poor whose walk is blameless
than the rich whose ways are perverse.(A)
7 A discerning son heeds instruction,
but a companion of gluttons disgraces his father.(B)
