Proverbs 14:34

Wycliffe's Bible with Modern Spelling

Rightfulness [or Rightwiseness] raiseth [up] a folk; sin maketh peoples wretches.

For the Lord made low Judah for Ahaz, the king of Judah; for he had made him naked of help, and despised the Lord.

He hath set fruitful land into salti-ness; for the malice of men dwelling therein.

Wisdom resteth in the heart of a wise man; and he shall teach all unlearned men.

A servant understanding is accept-able to a king; a servant unprofitable shall suffer the wrathfulness of him.

A just king raiseth [up] the land; an avaricious man shall destroy it.

For Ephraim spake, hideousness assailed Israel; and he trespassed in Baal, and was dead.
