Proverbs 17:26
GOD’S WORD Translation
26 To punish an innocent person is not good.
To strike down noble people is not right.
Proverbs 17:26
New International Version
26 If imposing a fine on the innocent is not good,(A)
surely to flog honest officials is not right.
Proverbs 25:6-7
GOD’S WORD Translation
6 Do not brag about yourself in front of a king
or stand in the spot that belongs to notable people,
7 because it is better to be told, “Come up here,”
than to be put down in front of a prince
whom your eyes have seen.
Proverbs 25:6-7
New International Version
6 Do not exalt yourself in the king’s presence,
and do not claim a place among his great men;
7 it is better for him to say to you, “Come up here,”(A)
than for him to humiliate you before his nobles.
What you have seen with your eyes
