Isaiah 32:5-8 (New Century Version)
View In My Bible
5
Fools will not be called great, and people will not respect the wicked.
6
A fool says foolish things, and in his mind he plans evil. A fool does things that are wicked, and he says wrong things about the Lord. A fool does not feed the hungry or let thirsty people drink water.
7
The wicked person uses evil like a tool. He plans ways to take everything from the poor. He destroys the poor with lies, even when the poor person is in the right.
8
But a good leader plans to do good, and those good things make him a good leader.
