Isaiah 32:4-6
Easy-to-Read Version
4 People who are now confused would be able to understand. Those who cannot speak clearly now would be able to speak clearly and quickly. 5 Fools would not be called great men. People would not respect men who make secret plans.
6 Fools[a] say foolish things, and in their minds they plan evil things to do. They want to do what is wrong. They say bad things about the Lord. They don’t let hungry people eat their food. They don’t let thirsty people drink the water.

Isaiah 32:4-6
New International Version
4 The fearful heart will know and understand,(A)
and the stammering tongue(B) will be fluent and clear.
5 No longer will the fool(C) be called noble
nor the scoundrel be highly respected.
6 For fools speak folly,(D)
their hearts are bent on evil:(E)
They practice ungodliness(F)
and spread error(G) concerning the Lord;
the hungry they leave empty(H)
and from the thirsty they withhold water.
