Proverbs 14:12 in Context — Proverbs 14

10 El corazón conoce la amargura de su alma; y extraño no se entrometerá en su alegría.

11 La casa de los impíos será asolada: mas florecerá la tienda de los rectos.

12 Hay camino que al hombre parece derecho; empero su fin son caminos de muerte.

13 Aun en la risa tendrá dolor el corazón; y el término de la alegría es congoja.

14 De sus caminos será harto el apartado de razón: y el hombre de bien [estará contento] del [suyo].
