New Testament

Proverbs 14:6-12 International Children’s Bible (ICB)

6. Those who make fun of wisdom look for it but do not find it.But the person with understanding easily finds knowledge.

7. Stay away from a foolish person.You won’t learn anything from him.

8. What makes a person wise is understanding what to do.But what makes a person foolish is dishonesty.

9. Foolish people don’t care if they sin.But honest people work at being right with others.

10. No one else can know your sadness.Strangers cannot share your joy.

11. The wicked person’s house will be destroyed.But a good person’s tent will still be standing.

12. Some people think they are doing what’s right.But what they are doing will really kill them.
