Proverbs 14:1-3 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

1. A wise woman builds up her household. But a foolish one will pull down with her own hands what has been built up.

2. One who walks on a virtuous journey, and who fears God, is despised by him who advances along a disreputable way.

3. In the mouth of the foolish, there is a rod of arrogance. But the lips of the wise guard them.
