* Whoso loveth instruction loveth knowledge da #ath #: but he that hateth reproof is brutish ba #ar #. * A good man obtaineth favour of the LORD : but a man of wicked devices will he condemn . * A man shall not be established by wickedness : but the root of the righteous shall not be moved . * A virtuous woman is a crown to her husband ba #al #: but she that maketh ashamed is as rottenness in his bones . * The thoughts of the righteous are right : but the counsels of the wicked are deceit . * The words of the wicked are to lie in wait for blood : but the mouth of the upright shall deliver them . * The wicked are overthrown , and are not : but the house of the righteous shall stand . * A man shall be commended hal92 ) according to his wisdom : but he that is of a perverse heart shall be despised . * He that is despised , and hath a servant , is better than he that honoureth himself , and lacketh bread . * A righteous man regardeth the life of his beast : but the tender mercies of the wicked are cruel . * He that tilleth his land shall be satisfied with bread : but he that followeth vain persons is void of understanding . * The wicked desireth the net of evil men : but the root of the righteous yieldeth fruit . * The wicked is snared by the transgression of his lips : but the just shall come out of trouble . * A man shall be satisfied with good by the fruit of his mouth : and the recompence of a mans hands shall be rendered (8675 ) unto him . * The way of a fool is right in his own eyes : but he that hearkeneth unto counsel is wise . * A fools wrath is presently known : but a prudent man covereth shame . * He that speaketh truth sheweth forth righteousness : but a false witness deceit . * There is that speaketh like the piercings of a sword : but the tongue of the wise is health . * The lip of truth shall be established for ever : but a lying tongue is but for a moment . * Deceit is in the heart of them that imagine evil : but to the counsellors of peace is joy . * There shall no evil happen to the just : but the wicked shall be filled with mischief . * Lying lips are abomination to the LORD : but they that deal truly are his delight . * A prudent man concealeth knowledge da #ath #: but the heart of fools proclaimeth foolishness . * The hand of the diligent shall bear rule : but the slothful shall be under tribute . * Heaviness in the heart of man maketh it stoop : but a good word maketh it glad . * The righteous is more excellent than his neighbour : but the way of the wicked seduceth them . * The slothful man roasteth not that which he took in hunting : but the substance of a diligent man is precious . * In the way of righteousness is life ; and in the pathway nathiyb # thereof there is no death .
