Isaiah 32:7

5 No longer will a fool be called noble, nor a scoundrel be respected.

6 For a fool speaks foolishness; his mind plots iniquity. He practices ungodliness and speaks falsely about the LORD; he leaves the hungry empty and deprives the thirsty of drink.

The weapons of the scoundrel are destructive; he hatches plots to destroy the poor with lies, even when the plea of the needy is just.

8 But a noble man makes honorable plans; he stands up for worthy causes.

9 Stand up, you complacent women; listen to me. Give ear to my word, you overconfident daughters.

Dette ble sagt til Israel i en bestemt tid, så det er lurt å lese det sammen med teksten rundt. Les gjerne versene rundt også, for sammenhengen gir ofte mer enn ett vers alene.
