Proverbs 12

Whoever loves correction loves knowledge,

A good man shall obtain favor from Yahweh,

A man shall not be established by wickedness,

A worthy woman is the crown of her husband,

The thoughts of the righteous are just,

The words of the wicked are about lying in wait for blood,

The wicked are overthrown, and are no more,

A man shall be commended according to his wisdom,

Better is he who is little know, and has a servant,

A righteous man respects the life of his animal,

He who tills his land shall have plenty of bread,

The wicked desires the plunder of evil men,

An evil man is trapped by sinfulness of lips,

A man shall be satisfied with good by the fruit of his mouth.

The way of a fool is right in his own eyes,

A fool shows his annoyance the same day,

He who is truthful testifies honestly,

There is one who speaks rashly like the piercing of a sword,

Truth’s lips will be established forever,

Deceit is in the heart of those who plot evil,

No mischief shall happen to the righteous,

Lying lips are an abomination to Yahweh,

A prudent man keeps his knowledge,

The hands of the diligent ones shall rule,

Anxiety in a man’s heart weighs it down,

A righteous person is cautious in friendship,

The slothful man doesn’t roast his game,

In the way of righteousness is life;
