Isaiah 32:6-8
American Standard Version
6 For the fool will speak folly, and his heart will work iniquity, to practise profaneness, and to utter error against Jehovah, to make empty the soul of the hungry, and to cause the drink of the thirsty to fail. 7 And the instruments of the churl are evil: he deviseth wicked devices to destroy the [a]meek with lying words, even when the needy speaketh right. 8 But the noble deviseth noble things; and [b]in noble things shall he continue.

Isaiah 32:6-8
New International Version
6 For fools speak folly,(A)
their hearts are bent on evil:(B)
They practice ungodliness(C)
and spread error(D) concerning the Lord;
the hungry they leave empty(E)
and from the thirsty they withhold water.
7 Scoundrels use wicked methods,(F)
they make up evil schemes(G)
to destroy the poor with lies,
even when the plea of the needy(H) is just.(I)
8 But the noble make noble plans,
and by noble deeds(J) they stand.(K)
