12To learn, you must love discipline; it is stupid to hate correction.H157H4148H157H1847H8130H8433H1198 2The Lord approves of those who are good, but he condemns those who plan wickedness.H2896H6329H7522H3068H376H4209H7561 3Wickedness never brings stability, but the godly have deep roots.H120H3559H7562H8328H6662H4131 4A worthy wife is a crown for her husband, but a disgraceful woman is like cancer in his bones.H2428H802H5850H1167H954H7538H6106 5The plans of the godly are just; the advice of the wicked is treacherous.H4284H6662H4941H8458H7563H4820 6The words of the wicked are like a murderous ambush, but the words of the godly save lives.H1697H7563H693H1818H6310H3477H5337 7The wicked die and disappear, but the family of the godly stands firm.H7563H2015H1004H6662H5975 8A sensible person wins admiration, but a warped mind is despised.H376H1984H6310H7922H5753H3820H937 9Better to be an ordinary person with a servant than to be self-important but have no food.H7034H5650H2896H3513H2638H3899 10The godly care for their animals, but the wicked are always cruel.H6662H3045H5315H929H7356H7563H394 11A hard worker has plenty of food, but a person who chases fantasies has no sense.H5647H127H7646H3899H7291H7386H2638H3820 12Thieves are jealous of each other’s loot, but the godly are well rooted and bear their own fruit.H7563H2530H4685H7451H8328H6662H5414 13The wicked are trapped by their own words, but the godly escape such trouble.H7451H4170H6588H8193H6662H3318H6869 14Wise words bring many benefits, and hard work brings rewards.H376H7646H2896H6529H6310H1576H120H3027H7725H7725 15Fools think their own way is right, but the wise listen to others.H1870H191H3477H5869H8085H6098H2450 16A fool is quick-tempered, but a wise person stays calm when insulted.H191H3708H3117H3045H6175H3680H7036 17An honest witness tells the truth; a false witness tells lies.H6315H530H5046H6664H8267H5707H4820 18Some people make cutting remarks, but the words of the wise bring healing.H3426H981H4094H2719H3956H2450H4832 19Truthful words stand the test of time, but lies are soon exposed.H8193H571H3559H5703H8267H3956H7280 20Deceit fills hearts that are plotting evil; joy fills hearts that are planning peace!H4820H3820H2790H7451H3289H7965H8057 21No harm comes to the godly, but the wicked have their fill of trouble.H205H579H6662H7563H4390H7451 22The Lord detests lying lips, but he delights in those who tell the truth.H8267H8193H8441H3068H6213H530H7522 23The wise don’t make a show of their knowledge, but fools broadcast their foolishness.H6175H120H3680H1847H3820H3684H7121H200 24Work hard and become a leader; be lazy and become a slave.H3027H2742H4910H7423H4522 25Worry weighs a person down; an encouraging word cheers a person up.H1674H3820H376H7812H2896H1697H8055 26The godly give good advice to their friends; the wicked lead them astray.H6662H8446H7453H1870H7563H8582 27Lazy people don’t even cook the game they catch, but the diligent make use of everything they find.H7423H2760H6718H1952H2742H120H3368 28The way of the godly leads to life; that path does not lead to death.H734H6666H2416H5410H1870H4194
