Proverbs 12:8-9
English Standard Version
8 A man is commended according to his good sense,
but one of twisted mind is (A)despised.
9 Better to be lowly and have a servant
than to play the great man and lack bread.
Proverbs 12:8-9
New International Version
8 A person is praised according to their prudence,
and one with a warped(A) mind is despised.
9 Better to be a nobody and yet have a servant
than pretend to be somebody and have no food.
