Proverbs 28:26

The Scriptures 1998

He who trusts in his own heart is a fool, But he who walks wisely is delivered.

See the chapter Copy

And Ḥ

And He said to man, ‘See, the fear of יהוה, that is wisdom, and to turn from evil is understanding.’ ”

To deliver you from the evil way, From the man who speaks perversities,

Have you seen a man wise in his own eyes? There is more expectancy for a fool than for him.

Trust in יהוה with all your heart, And lean not on your own understanding;

Do not be wise in your own eyes; Fear יהוה and turn away from evil.

“The heart is crooked above all, and desperately sick – who shall know it?

Because the mind of the flesh is enmity towards Elohim, for it does not subject itself to the Torah of Elohim, neither indeed is it able,

and that from a babe you have known the Set-apart Scriptures, which are able to make you wise for deliverance through belief in Messiah יהושע.

If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of Elohim, who gives to all generously and without reproach, and it shall be given to him.
