Proverbs 12:7-9

Evangelical Heritage Version

⁷ Wicked people are overthrown, and they are no more,
but the house of the righteous continues to stand.
⁸ A person is praised for the good sense that he speaks,
but a person with a twisted heart will be despised.
⁹ Better to be underestimated and have a servant
than to pretend to be wealthy and lack bread.
