Proverbs 29:8-10
Contemporary English Version
8 Sneering at others is a spark
that sets a city on fire;
using good sense can put out
the flames of anger.
9 Be wise and don't sue a fool.
You won't get satisfaction,
because all the fool will do
is sneer and shout.
10 A murderer hates everyone
who is honest
and lives right.[a]
Footnotes
- 29.10 and lives right: Or “and those who live right are friends of honest people.”
