No longer will the
fool be
called noble, Or the
rogue be
spoken of as
generous.

For a
fool speaks nonsense, And his
heart inclines toward
wickedness: To
practice ungodliness and to
speak error against the
LORD, To
keep the
hungry person unsatisfied And to
withhold drink from the
thirsty.

As for a
rogue, his
weapons are
evil; He
devises wicked schemes To
destroy the
afflicted with
slander *, Even though the
needy one speaks what is
right.

But the
noble man devises noble plans; And by
noble plans he
stands.
