2.6 KiB
Chapter 12
-
Whoever loves discipline loves knowledge, but he who hates reproof is stupid.
-
A good man obtains favor from the LORD, but a man of evil devices he condemns.
-
No one is established by wickedness, but the root of the righteous will never be moved.
-
An excellent wife is the crown of her husband, but she who brings shame is like rottenness in his bones.
-
The thoughts of the righteous are just; the counsels of the wicked are deceitful.
-
The words of the wicked lie in wait for blood, but the mouth of the upright delivers them.
-
The wicked are overthrown and are no more, but the house of the righteous will stand.
-
A man is commended according to his good sense, but one of twisted mind is despised.
-
Better to be lowly and have a servant than to play the great man and lack bread.
-
Whoever is righteous has regard for the life of his beast, but the mercy of the wicked is cruel.
-
Whoever works his land will have plenty of bread, but he who follows worthless pursuits lacks sense.
-
Whoever is wicked covets the spoil of evildoers, but the root of the righteous bears fruit.
-
An evil man is ensnared by the transgression of his lips, but the righteous escapes from trouble.
-
From the fruit of his mouth a man is satisfied with good, and the work of a man's hand comes back to him.
-
The way of a fool is right in his own eyes, but a wise man listens to advice.
-
The vexation of a fool is known at once, but the prudent ignores an insult.
-
Whoever speaks the truth gives honest evidence, but a false witness utters deceit.
-
There is one whose rash words are like sword thrusts, but the tongue of the wise brings healing.
-
Truthful lips endure forever, but a lying tongue is but for a moment.
-
Deceit is in the heart of those who devise evil, but those who plan peace have joy.
-
No ill befalls the righteous, but the wicked are filled with trouble.
-
Lying lips are an abomination to the LORD, but those who act faithfully are his delight.
-
A prudent man conceals knowledge, but the heart of fools proclaims folly.
-
The hand of the diligent will rule, while the slothful will be put to forced labor.
-
Anxiety in a man's heart weighs him down, but a good word makes him glad.
-
One who is righteous is a guide to his neighbor, but the way of the wicked leads them astray.
-
Whoever is slothful will not roast his game, but the diligent man will get precious wealth.
-
In the path of righteousness is life, and in its pathway there is no death.
