Proverbs 11:14-22 International Children’s Bible (ICB)

14. Without leadership a nation will be defeated.But when many people give advice, it will be safe.

15. Whoever guarantees to pay what somebody else owes will suffer.It is safer to avoid such promises.

16. A kind woman is respected.But cruel men get wealth.

17. A kind person is doing himself a favor.But a cruel person brings trouble on himself.

18. An evil person really gains nothing from what he earns.But a good person will surely be rewarded.

19. Those who are truly good will live.But those who chase after evil will die.

20. The Lord hates those with evil hearts.But he is pleased with those who are innocent.

21. You can be sure that evil people will be punished.But those who do what is right will not be punished.

22. A beautiful woman without good senseis like a gold ring in a pig’s snout.
