NASB
"No longer will the fool be called noble, Or the rogue be spoken of as generous."
— Isaiah 32:5, NASB
“The vile person shall be no more called liberal, nor the churl said to be bountiful.”
“The fool shall be no more called noble, nor the churl said to be bountiful. ”
“The fool will no longer be called noble, nor the scoundrel be highly respected.”
“A fool will no longer be called honorable; a deceiver will no longer be called principled.”
“The fool shall no more be called prince: neither shall the deceitful be called great:”
“The foolish man will no longer be named noble, and they will not say of the false man that he is a man of honour.”
“The vile person shall be no more called liberal, nor the churl said to be bountiful.”
Each will be like a refuge from the wind And a shelter from the storm, Like streams of water in a dry country, Like the shade of a huge rock in a parched land.
Then the eyes of those who see will not be blinded, And the ears of those who hear will listen.
The mind of the hasty will discern the truth, And the tongue of the stammerers will hasten to speak clearly.
No longer will the fool be called noble, Or the rogue be spoken of as generous.
For a fool speaks nonsense, And his heart inclines toward wickedness: To practice ungodliness and to speak error against the LORD, To keep the hungry person unsatisfied And to withhold drink from the thirsty.
As for a rogue, his weapons are evil; He devises wicked schemes To destroy the afflicted with slander, Even though the needy one speaks what is right.
But the noble man devises noble plans; And by noble plans he stands.
