Proverbs 14:2-4

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised Catholic Edition

² Those who walk uprightly fear the Lord,
    but one who is devious in conduct despises him.
³ The talk of fools is a rod for their backs,^[a]
    but the lips of the wise preserve them.
⁴ Where there are no oxen, there is no grain;
    abundant crops come by the strength of the ox.
