Proverbs 11:21


← Proverbs 11:20 Proverbs 11:21 (KJV) Proverbs 11:22 →
They that are of a froward heart are abomination to the LORD: but such as are upright in their way are his delight.
Though hand join in hand, the wicked shall not be unpunished: but the seed of the righteous shall be delivered.
As a jewel of gold in a swine's snout, so is a fair woman which is without discretion.
