New Testament

Proverbs 24:1-10 International Children’s Bible (ICB)

1. Don’t envy evil people.Don’t try to be friends with them.

2. In their minds they plan cruel things.And they always talk about making trouble.

3. It takes wisdom to have a good family.It takes understanding to make it strong.

4. It takes knowledge to fill a homewith rare and beautiful treasures.

5. A wise man has great power.And a man who has knowledge is very strong.

6. So you need the advice of others when you go to war.If you have many people to give advice, you will win.

7. A foolish person cannot understand wisdom.He has nothing to say in court.

8. Whoever makes evil planswill be known as a troublemaker.

9. Making foolish plans is sinful.And making fun of others is hateful.

10. If you give up when trouble comes,it shows that you have very little strength.
