Amplified Bible
Proverbs 21:4-6
Amplified Bible
4
Haughty and arrogant eyes and a proud heart,
The lamp of the wicked [their self-centered pride], is sin [in the eyes of God].
5
The plans of the diligent lead surely to abundance and advantage,
But everyone who acts in haste comes surely to poverty.
6
Acquiring treasures by a lying tongue
Is a fleeting vapor, the seeking and pursuit of death.
Proverbs 21:4-6
New International Version
Proverbs 21:4-6
New International Version
4 Haughty eyes(A) and a proud heart—
the unplowed field of the wicked—produce sin.
5 The plans of the diligent lead to profit(B)
as surely as haste leads to poverty.
