Proverbs 19:1-4 Amplified Bible (AMP)

1. BETTER IS a poor man who walks in his integrity than a rich man who is perverse in his speech and is a [self-confident] fool.

2. Desire without knowledge is not good, and to be overhasty is to sin and miss the mark.

3. The foolishness of man subverts his way [ruins his affairs]; then his heart is resentful and frets against the Lord.

4. Wealth makes many friends, but the poor man is avoided by his neighbor. [Prov. 14:20.]
