Proverbs 14:9 in Context — Proverbs 14
7 Vete de delante del hombre necio, porque [en él] no advertirás labios de ciencia.
8 La ciencia del cuerdo es entender su camino: mas la indiscreción de los necios es engaño.
9 Los necios se mofan del pecado: mas entre los rectos hay favor.
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.
