1The one who loves <0157> discipline <04148> loves <0157> knowledge <01847>, but the one who hates <08130> reproof <08433> is stupid <01197>.
2A good <02896> person obtains <06329> favor <07522> from the Lord, but the Lord <03069> condemns <07561> a person <0376> with wicked schemes <04209>.
3No <03808> one <0120> can be established <03559> through wickedness <07562>, but a righteous <06662> root <08328> cannot <01077> be moved <04131>.
4A noble <02428> wife <0802> is the crown <05850> of her husband <01167>, but the wife who acts shamefully <0954> is like rottenness <07538> in his bones <06106>.
5The plans <04284> of the righteous <06662> are just <04941>; the counsels <08458> of the wicked <07563> are deceitful <04820>.
6The words <01697> of the wicked <07563> lie in wait <0693> to shed innocent blood <01818>, but the words <06310> of the upright <03477> will deliver <05337> them.
7The wicked <07563> are overthrown <02015> and perish <0369>, but the righteous <06662> household <01004> will stand <05975>.
8A person is praised <01984> in accordance with <06310> his wisdom <07922>, but the one <0376> who has a twisted <05753> mind <03820> is <01961> despised <0937>.
9Better <02896> is a person of humble standing <07034> who nevertheless has a servant <05650>, than one who pretends to be somebody important <03513> yet has no <02638> food <03899>.
10A righteous <06662> person cares for <03045> the life <05315> of his animal <0929>, but even the most compassionate acts <07356> of the wicked <07563> are cruel <0394>.
11The one who works <05647> his field <0127> will have plenty <07646> of food <03899>, but whoever chases <07291> daydreams <07386> lacks <02638> wisdom <03820>.
12The wicked <07563> person desires <02530> a stronghold <07451> <04685>, but the righteous <06662> root <08328> endures <05414>.
13The evil <07451> person is ensnared <04170> by the transgression <06588> of his speech <08193>, but the righteous <06662> person escapes out <03318> of trouble <06869>.
14A person <0376> will be satisfied <07646> with good <02896> from the fruit <06529> of his words <06310>, and the work <01576> of his hands <0120> <03027> will be rendered <07725> to him.
15The way <01870> of a fool <0191> is right <03477> in his own opinion <05869>, but the one who listens <08085> to advice <06098> is wise <02450>.
16A fool’s <0191> annoyance <03708> is known <03045> at once <03117>, but the prudent <06175> overlooks <03680> an insult <07036>.
17The faithful <0530> witness <06315> tells <05046> what is right <06664>, but a false <08267> witness <05707> speaks deceit <04820>.
18Speaking recklessly <0981> is like the thrusts <04094> of a sword <02719>, but the words <03956> of the wise <02450> bring healing <04832>.
19The one who tells <08193> the truth <0571> will endure <03559> forever <05703>, but the one who lies <08267> <03956> will last only for a moment <07281>.
20Deceit <04820> is in the heart <03820> of those who plot <02790> evil <07451>, but those who promote <03289> peace <07965> have joy <08057>.
21The righteous <06662> do not <03808> encounter <0579> any <03605> harm <0205>, but the wicked <07563> are filled <04390> with calamity <07451>.
22The Lord <03068> abhors <08441> a person who lies <08267> <08193>, but those who deal <06213> truthfully <0530> are his delight <07522>.
23The shrewd <06175> person <0120> conceals <03680> knowledge <01847>, but foolish <03684> people <03820> publicize <07121> folly <0200>.
24The diligent <02742> person <03027> will rule <04910>, but the slothful <07423> will become <01961> a slave <04522>.
25Anxiety <01674> in a person’s <0376> heart <03820> weighs <07812> him down <07812>, but an encouraging <02896> word <01697> brings <08055> him joy <08055>.
26The righteous <06662> person is cautious <08446> in his friendship <07453>, but the way <01870> of the wicked <07563> leads <08582> them astray <08582>.
27The lazy person <07423> does not <03808> roast <02760> his prey <06718>, but personal possessions <0120> <01952> are precious <03368> to the diligent <02742>.
28In the path <0734> of righteousness <06666> there is life <02416>, but another path <05410> <01870> leads to death <04194> <0408>.
