Proverbs 14

Proverbs 14 contrasts the wise and the foolish: the wise fear YHWH, build their houses, speak truth, and find life, while the foolish are reckless, tear down, lie, and lead to death. Key teachings include 'There is a way that seems right to a man, but its end is the way of death' (Prov 14:12), the prudent consider their steps, righteousness exalts a nation, and the wicked will bow before the righteous.[1][2][3][4][5]
