Proverbs 28:17-19

New Life Version

¹⁷A man who is loaded down with the guilt of human blood will run in fear until death. Let no one help him.

¹⁸He who walks without blame will be kept safe, but he who is sinful will fall all at once.

¹⁹He who works his land will have more than enough food, but he who wastes his time will become very poor.

Proverbs 28:17-19

New International Version

¹⁷Anyone tormented by the guilt of murder
will seek refuge^(A) in the grave;
let no one hold them back.

¹⁸The one whose walk is blameless is kept safe,^(B)
but the one whose ways are perverse will fall^(C) into the pit.^[a]

¹⁹Those who work their land will have abundant food,
but those who chase fantasies will have their fill of poverty.^(D)
