Isaiah 32:6-8
The Voice
6 For fools utter nonsense, and their minds are preoccupied with evil;
they regularly misrepresent the Eternal in what they say and do,
Leaving true seekers frustrated and confused,
the hungry with empty stomachs and the thirsty with parched mouths.
7 As for the criminals—their schemes are vile and evil;
they are constantly looking for ways to hurt the innocent,
To ruin the poor with their lies, and to twist a justified complaint.
8 By contrast, those who are noble have noble intentions,
and they stand confidently by their honorable words and actions.
Isaiah 32:6-8
New International Version
6 For fools speak folly,(A)
their hearts are bent on evil:(B)
They practice ungodliness(C)
and spread error(D) concerning the Lord;
the hungry they leave empty(E)
and from the thirsty they withhold water.
7 Scoundrels use wicked methods,(F)
they make up evil schemes(G)
to destroy the poor with lies,
even when the plea of the needy(H) is just.(I)
8 But the noble make noble plans,
and by noble deeds(J) they stand.(K)
