Proverbs 14:19-24 Douay-Rheims Challoner Revision 1752 (DRC1752)

19. The evil shall fall down before the good: and the wicked before the gates of the just.

20. The poor man shall be hateful even to his own neighbour: but the friends of the rich are many.

21. He that despiseth his neighbour, sinneth: but he that sheweth mercy to the poor, shall be blessed. He that believeth in the Lord, loveth mercy.

22. They err that work evil: but mercy and truth prepare good things.

23. In much work there shall be abundance: but where there are many words, there is oftentimes want.

24. The crown of the wise is their riches: the folly of fools, imprudence.
