Proverbs 14:12-17 Douay-Rheims Challoner Revision 1752 (DRC1752)

12. There is a way which seemeth just to a man: but the ends thereof lead to death.

13. Laughter shall be mingled with sorrow, and mourning taketh hold of the end of joy.

14. A fool shall be filled with his own ways, and the good man shall be above him.

15. The innocent believeth every word: the discreet man considereth his steps. No good shall come to the deceitful son: but the wise servant shall prosper in his dealings, and his way shall be made straight.

16. A wise man feareth and declineth from evil: the fool leapeth over and is confident.

17. The impatient man shall work folly: and the crafty man is hateful.
