Isaiah 32:6

Isaiah 32:6

4 Also the heart of the¹ rash will ^aunderstand knowledge,
And the tongue of the stammerers will be ready to speak plainly.

5 The foolish person will no longer be called¹ generous,
Nor the miser said to be bountiful;

6 For the foolish person will speak foolishness,
And his heart will work ^ainiquity:
To practice ungodliness,
To utter error against the Lord,
To keep the hungry unsatisfied,
And he will cause the drink of the thirsty to fail.

7 Also the schemes of the schemer are evil;
He devises wicked plans
To destroy the poor with ^alying words,
Even when the needy speaks justice.

8 But a¹ generous man devises generous things,
And by generosity he shall stand.

Isaiah 32:7 >>

Villainy - Men shall no longer be miscalled; for every one will discover what he is by his words and actions. Will work - He will, from time to time, be advising wickedness, that he may execute it when he hath opportunity. To practise - To do bad things, tho' with a pretence of religion and justice. To utter - To pass unjust sentence, directly contrary to the command of God. Cause the drink - Whereby they take away the bread and the drink of the poor.
