Proverbs 14:3-14

³Foolish people will be punished MTY for what they say, but wise people will be protected by what they say MTY.

⁴If a man has no oxen to plow his field, he does not need to put grain in their feedbox, but if he has oxen, they will enable him to produce an abundant crop.

⁵Witnesses who are reliable always say what ◄is true/really happened►, but witnesses who are not reliable constantly tell lies about what happened.

⁶Those who make fun of being wise will never become wise, but those who understand what is right learn things easily.

⁷Stay away from foolish people, because they will not be able to teach you anything useful.

⁸Those who have good sense are wise, so they know what they should do and what they should not do; foolish people do not know what is right to do, but because they think that they do, they are deceiving themselves.

⁹Foolish people make fun of their committing sins; but God is pleased with those who do what is right.

¹⁰If you are very sad or if you are joyful, only you know what you are experiencing; no one else can know what you are feeling.

¹¹Houses built by wicked people will be destroyed, but houses built by good/righteous people will last for a long time.

¹²There are some kinds of behavior MET that some people falsely think are right, but ◄walking on those roads/continually doing those things► causes those people to die.

¹³Sometimes when people laugh, they are really sad, and when they stop laughing, they are still sad.

¹⁴Those who stubbornly continue to do what is wrong will get what they deserve, and those who continually do what is good will also get what they deserve.
