Wisdom 3:11-13

Common English Bible

¹¹ Those who have contempt for wisdom and instruction will be miserable. People like this have no hope. Their work won’t amount to anything. Their actions will be worthless. ¹² They will marry foolish people. Their children will be wicked. Their whole family line will be cursed.

¹³ What a contrast to the barren woman who has kept herself pure, who hasn’t had sex with another in sin. She will be blessed. When God inspects entire lives, she will bear fruit.
