Proverbs 14:24

Julia E. Smith Translation 1876

The crown of the wise is their riches: the folly of the foolish, folly.

See the chapter Copy

And I say to you, Make to yourselves friends of the mammon of injustice; that, when ye fail, they might receive you into lasting tents.

And the stability of thy times, the strength of salvation, was wisdom and knowledge: the fear of Jehovah this his treasure.

If thou shalt pound the foolish in a mortar in the midst of the grain with a pestle, thou shalt not remove from him his folly.

He scattered, he gave to the needy; his justice stands forever; his horn shall be exalted in glory.

The blessing of Jehovah it will make rich, and it will not add pain with it

The expiating of a man's soul is his riches: and the poor will not hear rebuke.

In all labor will be profit: and the word of the lips only to want

A treasure desired, and oil in the house of the wise one; and the foolish man will swallow it down.
