25A greedy man stirs up strife,
but he who trusts in the Lord will be enriched.
26He who trusts in his own mind is a fool;
but he who walks in wisdom will be delivered.
27He who gives to the poor will not want,
but he who hides his eyes will get many a curse.
28When the wicked rise, men hide themselves,
but when they perish, the righteous increase.

A greedy man stirs up strife,
but the one who trusts in the Lord will be enriched.
Whoever trusts in his own mind is a fool,
but he who walks in wisdom will be delivered.
Whoever gives to the poor will not want,
but he who hides his eyes will get many a curse.
When the wicked rise, people hide themselves,

The greedy stir up conflict,
but those who trust in the Lord will prosper.
Those who trust in themselves are fools,
but those who walk in wisdom are kept safe.
Those who give to the poor will lack nothing,
but those who close their eyes to them receive many curses.
When the wicked rise to power, people go into hiding;
but when the wicked perish, the righteous thrive.

A greedy person stirs up conflict,
but whoever trusts in the Lord will prosper.
The one who trusts in himself is a fool,
but one who walks in wisdom will be safe.
The one who gives to the poor
will not be in need,
but one who turns his eyes away
will receive many curses.
When the wicked come to power,
people hide,
but when they are destroyed,
the righteous flourish.

NLTNew Living Translation
Greed causes fighting;
trusting the Lord leads to prosperity.
Those who trust their own insight are foolish,
but anyone who walks in wisdom is safe.
Whoever gives to the poor will lack nothing,
but those who close their eyes to poverty will be cursed.
When the wicked take charge, people go into hiding.
When the wicked meet disaster, the godly flourish.

LEBThe Lexham English Bible
The greedy person will stir up strife,
but he who trusts in Yahweh will be enriched.
He who trusts in his own heart is a fool,
but he who walks in wisdom will be saved.
For he who gives to the poor, there is no lacking,
but for he who turns his eyes, there are many curses.
With the rising of the wicked, humankind will be hidden,
and with their perishing, the righteous will multiply.

KJV 1900King James Version
He that is of a proud heart stirreth up strife:
But he that putteth his trust in the Lord shall be made fat.
He that trusteth in his own heart is a fool:
But whoso walketh wisely, he shall be delivered.
He that giveth unto the poor shall not lack:
But he that hideth his eyes shall have many a curse.
When the wicked rise, men hide themselves:
But when they perish, the righteous increase.
