Whoso loveth{H157} correction{H4148} loveth{H157} knowledge;{H1847} But he that hateth{H8130} reproof{H8433} is brutish.{H1198}

A good{H2896} man shall obtain{H6329} favor{H7522} of Jehovah;{H3068} But a man{H376} of wicked devices{H4209} will he condemn.{H7561}

A man{H120} shall not be established{H3559} by wickedness;{H7562} But the root{H8328} of the righteous{H6662} shall not be moved.{H4131}

A worthy{H2428} woman{H802} is the crown{H5850} of her husband;{H1167} But she that maketh ashamed{H954} is as rottenness{H7538} in his bones.{H6106}

The thoughts{H4284} of the righteous{H6662} are just;{H4941} [But] the counsels{H8458} of the wicked{H7563} are deceit.{H4820}

The words{H1697} of the wicked{H7563} are of lying in wait{H693} for blood;{H1818} But the mouth{H6310} of the upright{H3477} shall deliver{H5337} them.

The wicked{H7563} are overthrown,{H2015} and are not; But the house{H1004} of the righteous{H6662} shall stand.{H5975}

A man{H376} shall be commended{H1984} according{H6310} to his wisdom;{H7922} But he that is of a perverse{H5753} heart{H3820} shall be despised.{H937}

Better{H2896} is he that is lightly esteemed,{H7034} and hath a servant,{H5650} Than he that honoreth{H3513} himself, and lacketh{H2638} bread.{H3899}

A righteous{H6662} man regardeth{H3045} the life{H5315} of his beast;{H929} But the tender mercies{H7356} of the wicked{H7563} are cruel.{H394}

He that tilleth{H5647} his land{H127} shall have plenty{H7646} of bread;{H3899} But he that followeth{H7291} after vain{H7386} [persons] is void{H2638} of understanding.{H3820}

The wicked{H7563} desireth{H2530} the net{H4685} of evil{H7451} men; But the root{H8328} of the righteous{H6662} yieldeth{H5414} [fruit].

In the transgression{H6588} of the lips{H8193} is a snare{H4170} to the evil{H6869} man; But the righteous{H6662} shall come out{H3318} of trouble.{H6869}

A man{H376} shall be satisfied{H7646} with good{H2896} by the fruit{H6529} of his mouth;{H6310} And the doings{H1576} of a man's{H120} hands{H3027} shall be rendered{H7725} unto him.

The way{H1870} of a fool{H191} is right{H3477} in his own eyes;{H5869} But he that is wise{H2450} hearkeneth{H8085} unto counsel.{H6098}

A fool's{H191} vexation{H3708} is presently{H3117} known;{H3045} But a prudent{H6175} man concealeth{H3680} shame.{H7036}

He that uttereth{H6315} truth{H530} showeth forth{H5046} righteousness;{H6664} But a false{H8267} witness,{H5707} deceit.{H4820}

There is{H3426} that speaketh{H981} rashly like the piercings{H4094} of a sword;{H2719} But the tongue{H3956} of the wise{H2450} is health.{H4832}

The lip{H8193} of truth{H571} shall be established{H3559} for ever;{H5703} But a lying{H8267} tongue{H3956} is but for a moment.{H7280}

Deceit{H4820} is in the heart{H3820} of them that devise{H2790} evil;{H7451} But to the counsellors{H3289} of peace{H7965} is joy.{H8057}

There shall no mischief{H205} happen{H579} to the righteous;{H6662} But the wicked{H7563} shall be filled{H4390} with evil.{H7451}

Lying{H8267} lips{H8193} are an abomination{H8441} to Jehovah;{H3068} But they that deal{H6213} truly{H530} are his delight.{H7522}

A prudent{H6175} man{H120} concealeth{H3680} knowledge;{H1847} But the heart{H3820} of fools{H3684} proclaimeth{H7121} foolishness.{H200}

The hand{H3027} of the diligent{H2742} shall bear rule;{H4910} But the slothful{H7423} shall be put under taskwork.{H4522}

Heaviness{H1674} in the heart{H3820} of a man{H376} maketh it stoop;{H7812} But a good{H2896} word{H1697} maketh it glad.{H8055}

The righteous{H6662} is a guide{H8446} to his neighbor;{H7453} But the way{H1870} of the wicked{H7563} causeth them to err.{H8582}

The slothful{H7423} man roasteth{H2760} not that which he took in hunting;{H6718} But the precious{H3368} substance{H1952} of men{H120} [is to] the diligent.{H2742}

In the way{H734} of righteousness{H6666} is life;{H2416} And in the pathway{H5410} thereof there is no death.{H4194}
