Proverbs 14:1-6

¹A wise woman buildeth her house; and an unwise woman shall destroy with hands, that is, with her evil works, an house builded. (A wise woman buildeth up her own house; but an unwise woman shall destroy with her own hands, that is, with her own evil works, the house that she hath built.)

²A man going in rightful way, and dreading God, is despised of him that goeth in the way of evil fame. (A person who doeth right, and feareth God or and revereth God, is despised by him who goeth in evil ways.)

³The rod of pride is in the mouth of a fool; the lips of wise men keep them (or but the lips of the wise keep them safe).

⁴Where oxen be not, the cratch is void (or the stall is empty); but where full many corns appear, there the strength of the ox is made open.

⁵A faithful witness shall not lie; a guileful witness bringeth forth a leasing (or a deceitful witness bringeth forth many lies).

⁶A scorner seeketh wisdom, and he findeth it not, (or A mocker seeketh wisdom, but never findeth it); the teaching of prudent men is easy.
