Isaiah 32:6-8

Tree of Life Version

⁶ For the fool speaks foolishness
and his heart works wickedness,
to practice ungodliness,
and speak error about Adonai,
to deprive the hungry of food
and withhold drink from the thirsty.
⁷ The scoundrel’s methods are evil—
he makes up wicked schemes
    to destroy the poor with lies,
even when the plea of the needy is just.
⁸ But the noble devises noble plans,
and for noble causes he stands.
