Proverbs 14:2-4

International Children’s Bible

² People who live good lives show respect for the Lord.
    But those who live evil lives show no respect for him.

³ A foolish person will be punished for his proud words.
    But a wise person’s words will protect him.

⁴ When there are no oxen, there is no food in the barn.
    But with the strength of an ox, much grain can be grown.
