Isaiah 32:6-8
The Voice
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
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)

Chinese Union Version Modern Punctuation (Simplified)
6 因为愚顽人必说愚顽话，心里想做罪孽，惯行亵渎的事，说错谬的话攻击耶和华，使饥饿的人无食可吃，使口渴的人无水可喝。 7 吝啬人所用的法子是恶的，他图谋恶计，用谎言毁灭谦卑人，穷乏人讲公理的时候，他也是这样行。 8 高明人却谋高明事，在高明事上也必永存。

Isaiah 32:6-8
New King James Version
6 For the foolish person will speak foolishness,
And his heart will work (A)iniquity:
To practice ungodliness,
To utter error against the Lord,
To keep the hungry unsatisfied,
And he will cause the drink of the thirsty to fail.
7 Also the schemes of the schemer are evil;
He devises wicked plans
To destroy the poor with (B)lying words,
Even when the needy speaks justice.
8 But a [a]generous man devises generous things,
And by generosity he shall stand.
