Isaiah 32:5-8

Good News Translation GNT

5 No one will think that a fool is honorable or say that a scoundrel is honest.

6 A fool speaks foolishly and thinks up evil things to do. What he does and what he says are an insult to the Lord, and he never feeds the hungry or gives thirsty people anything to drink.

7 A stupid person is evil and does evil things; he plots to ruin the poor with lies and to keep them from getting their rights.

8 But an honorable person acts honestly and stands firm for what is right.

New International Version NIV

5 No longer will the fool be called noble nor the scoundrel be highly respected.

6 For fools speak folly, their hearts are bent on evil: They practice ungodliness and spread error concerning the LORD; the hungry they leave empty and from the thirsty they withhold water.

7 Scoundrels use wicked methods, they make up evil schemes to destroy the poor with lies, even when the plea of the needy is just.

8 But the noble make noble plans, and by noble deeds they stand.
