Proverbs 14:4-6
Amplified Bible
4
Where there are no oxen, the manger is clean,
But much revenue [because of good crops] comes by the strength of the ox.
5
A faithful and trustworthy witness will not lie,
But a false witness speaks lies.
6
A scoffer seeks wisdom and finds none [for his ears are closed to wisdom],
But knowledge is easy for one who understands [because he is willing to learn].
Proverbs 14:4-6
New International Version
4 Where there are no oxen, the manger is empty,
but from the strength of an ox(A) come abundant harvests.
5 An honest witness does not deceive,
but a false witness pours out lies.(B)
6 The mocker seeks wisdom and finds none,
but knowledge comes easily to the discerning.(C)
