Proverbs 21:15-17
Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition
15 It is joy to the just to do judgment: and dread to them that work iniquity.
16 A man that shall wander out of the way of doctrine, shall abide in the company of the giants.
17 He that loveth good cheer, shall be in want: he that loveth wine, and fat things, shall not be rich.

Proverbs 21:15-17
New International Version
15 When justice is done, it brings joy to the righteous
but terror to evildoers.(A)
16 Whoever strays from the path of prudence
comes to rest in the company of the dead.(B)
17 Whoever loves pleasure will become poor;
whoever loves wine and olive oil will never be rich.(C)
