Proverbs 19:2 in other translations
Also, that the soul be without knowledge, it is not good; and he that hasteth with his feet sinneth.
Even zeal is no good without knowledge, and he who hurries his footsteps misses the mark.
It isn’t good to have zeal without knowledge, nor being hasty with one’s feet and missing the way.

1 Better is the poor man, that walketh in his simplicity, than a rich man that is perverse in his lips and unwise.
2 Where there is no knowledge of the soul, there is no good: and he that is hasty with his feet shall stumble.
3 The folly of a man supplanteth his steps: and he fretteth in his mind against God.
4 Riches make many friends: but from the poor man, even they whom he had, depart.
5 A false witness shall not be unpunished: and he that speaketh lies, shall not escape.
