Proverbs 14:2-6 American Standard Version (ASV)

2. He that walketh in his uprightness feareth Jehovah; But he that is perverse in his ways despiseth him.

3. In the mouth of the foolish is a rod for his pride; But the lips of the wise shall preserve them.

4. Where no oxen are, the crib is clean; But much increase is by the strength of the ox.

5. A faithful witness will not lie; But a false witness uttereth lies.

6. A scoffer seeketh wisdom, and findeth it not; But knowledge is easy unto him that hath understanding.
