New Testament

Proverbs 24:1-5 New International Version (NIV)

1. Do not envy the wicked, do not desire their company;

2. for their hearts plot violence, and their lips talk about making trouble.

3. By wisdom a house is built, and through understanding it is established;

4. through knowledge its rooms are filled with rare and beautiful treasures.

5. The wise prevail through great power, and those who have knowledge muster their strength.
