Proverbs 28:23-25
GOD’S WORD Translation
23 Whoever criticizes people will be more highly regarded in the future
than the one who flatters with his tongue.
24 The one who robs his father or his mother
and says, “It isn’t wrong!” is a companion to a vandal.
25 A greedy person stirs up a fight,
but whoever trusts the Lord prospers.
Proverbs 28:23-25
New King James Version
23 (A)He who rebukes a man will find more favor afterward
Than he who flatters with the tongue.
24 Whoever robs his father or his mother,
And says, “It is no transgression,”
The same (B)is companion to a destroyer.
25 (C)He who is of a proud heart stirs up strife,
(D)But he who trusts in the Lord will be prospered.
Proverbs 28:23-25
New International Version
23 Whoever rebukes a person will in the end gain favor
rather than one who has a flattering tongue.(A)
