Proverbs 11:22-24

Jubilee Bible 2000

²²¶ As a gold ring in a swine’s snout, so is a fair woman which is without discretion.

²³¶ The desire of the righteous is only good, but the hope of the wicked is wrath.

²⁴¶ There are those who scatter, and more is added unto them; and there are those who withhold more than is just, but come to poverty.

Proverbs 11:22-24

New International Version

²²Like a gold ring in a pig’s snout
is a beautiful woman who shows no discretion.

²³The desire of the righteous ends only in good,
but the hope of the wicked only in wrath.

²⁴One person gives freely, yet gains even more;
another withholds unduly, but comes to poverty.
