14 ¶ Every wise woman builds her house, but the foolish plucks it down with her hands.

²¶ He that walks in his uprightness fears the LORD, but he that is perverse in his ways despises him.

³¶ In the mouth of the foolish is a rod of pride, but the lips of the wise shall preserve them.

Proverbs 14:1-3

but those who despise him are devious in their ways.
