Proverbs 14:22
Thomson 1808
They who are led astray devise mischief; but the good devise mercy and truth.
The contrivers of mischief know neither mercy nor truth; but acts of kindness and truth are with them who contrive good.
Brenton 1851
They that go astray devise evils: but the good devise mercy and truth. The framers of evil do not understand mercy and truth: but compassion and faithfulness are with the framers of good.
Greek · Brenton
Πλανώμενοι τεκταίνουσι κακά, ἔλεον δὲ καὶ ἀλήθειαν τεκταίνουσιν ἀγαθοί· οὐκ ἐπίστανται ἔλεον καὶ πίστιν τέκτονες κακῶν, ἐλεημοσύναι δὲ καὶ πίστεις παρὰ τέκτοσιν ἀγαθοῖς.
