Proverbs 21:14 in Context — Proverbs 21
12 O justo considera prudentemente a casa do perverso; ele transtorna os perversos para a ruína.
13 Quem tapa seu ouvido ao clamor do pobre, ele também clamará, mas não será ouvido.
14 O presente em segredo extingue a ira; e a dádiva no colo [acalma] o forte furor.
15 Alegria para o justo é fazer justiça; mas [isso é] pavor para os que praticam maldade.
16 O homem que se afasta do caminho do entendimento repousará no ajuntamento dos mortos.
