Proverbs 12:7-9

Jubilee Bible 2000

⁷ ¶ God shall overthrow the wicked, and they shall not be any longer, but the house of the righteous shall remain.

⁸ ¶ A man shall be commended according to his wisdom, but he that is of a perverse heart shall be despised.

⁹ ¶ He that despises himself and becomes a slave is better than he that honours himself and lacks bread.
