Proverbs 14:25-29 New International Reader's Version (NIRV)

25. An honest witness saves lives. But a dishonest witness tells lies.

26. Anyone who shows respect for the Lord has a strong tower. It will be a safe place for his children.

27. Respect for the Lord is like a fountain that gives life. It turns you away from the jaws of death.

28. A large population is a king's glory. But a prince without followers is destroyed.

29. Anyone who is patient has great understanding. But anyone who gets angry quickly shows how foolish he is.
