Proverbs 11:22 in Context — Proverbs 11
20 O SENHOR abomina os perversos de coração; porém ele se agrada que caminham com sinceridade.
21 Com certeza o mal não será absolvido; mas a semente dos justos escapará livre.
22 A mulher bela mas sem discrição é como uma joia no focinho de uma porca.
23 O desejo dos justos é somente para o bem; mas a esperança dos perversos é a fúria.
24 Há quem dá generosamente e tem cada vez mais; e há quem retém mais do que é justo e empobrece.
