Proverbs 14:16 - Forerunner Commentary

Proverbs 14:16

14 The backslider in heart will be ^afilled with his own ways,
But a good man will be satisfied¹ from ^babove.

15 The simple believes every word,
But the prudent considers well his steps.

16 ^aA wise man fears and departs from evil,
But a fool rages and is self-confident.

17 A quick-tempered man acts foolishly,
And a man of wicked intentions is hated.

18 The simple inherit folly,
But the prudent are crowned with knowledge.
