Proverbs 19:1-5 New International Version Anglicized (NIVUK)

1. Better the poor whose way of life is blamelessthan a fool whose lips are perverse.

2. Desire without knowledge is not good –how much more will hasty feet miss the way!

3. A person’s own folly leads to their ruin,yet their heart rages against the Lord.

4. Wealth attracts many friends,but even the closest friend of the poor person deserts them.

5. A false witness will not go unpunished,and whoever pours out lies will not go free.
