New Century Version

Proverbs 20:1-5 New Century Version (NCV)

1. Wine and beer make people loud and uncontrolled;it is not wise to get drunk on them.

2. An angry king is like a roaring lion.Making him angry may cost you your life.

3. Foolish people are always fighting,but avoiding quarrels will bring you honor.

4. Lazy farmers don’t plow when they should;they expect a harvest, but there is none.

5. People’s thoughts can be like a deep well,but someone with understanding can find the wisdom there.
