Proverbs 14:25


Proverbs 14:24 Proverbs 14:25 (KJV) Proverbs 14:26
The crown of the wise [is] their riches: [but] the foolishness of fools [is] folly.
A true witness delivereth souls: but a deceitful [witness] speaketh lies.
In the fear of the LORD [is] strong confidence: and his children shall have a place of refuge.
