New Testament

Proverbs 22:1-5 New Century Version (NCV)

1. Being respected is more important than having great riches.To be well thought of is better than silver or gold.

2. The rich and the poor are alikein that the Lord made them all.

3. The wise see danger ahead and avoid it,but fools keep going and get into trouble.

4. Respecting the Lord and not being proudwill bring you wealth, honor, and life.

5. Evil people’s lives are like paths covered with thorns and traps.People who guard themselves don’t have such problems.
