Isaiah 32:6
Compare all
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. 

Consequences of Complacency

9 Rise up, you women awho are at ease,
Hear my voice;
You complacent daughters,
Give ear to my speech. 
10 In a year and some days
You will be troubled, you complacent women;
For the vintage will fail,
The gathering will not come.

Isaiah 32:6

The vile person will speak villany "The fool will still utter folly" - A sort of proverbial saying, which Euripides (Bacchae, 369) has expressed in the very same manner and words: · "The fool speaks folly. "Of this kind of simple and unadorned proverb or parable, see De S. Poes, Hebr. Praelect. xxiv.

Against the Lord "Against Jehovah" - For El , two MSS. read al , more properly; but both are of nearly the same meaning.
