Proverbs 22:14-16

Tree of Life Version

¹⁴The mouth of a seducing woman is a deep pit—
into it will fall one with whom Adonai is angry.

¹⁵Foolishness is bound up in the heart of a child,
but a rod of discipline will drive it far from him.

¹⁶The one who oppresses the poor to increase his own gain,
and the one who gives to the rich—both end in poverty.

Proverbs 22:14-16

New International Version

¹⁴The mouth of an adulterous woman is a deep pit;^(A)
a man who is under the Lord’s wrath falls into it.^(B)

¹⁵Folly is bound up in the heart of a child,
but the rod of discipline will drive it far away.^(C)

¹⁶One who oppresses the poor to increase his wealth
and one who gives gifts to the rich—both come to poverty.
