2 A good man ¹obtains favor from the LORD, but a man of evil devices he condemns.

3 No one is established by wickedness, but the root of ²the righteous will never be moved.

4 ³An excellent wife is ⁴the crown of her husband, but she who ⁵brings shame is like ⁶rottenness in his bones.

5 ⁷The thoughts of the righteous are just; the counsels of the wicked are deceitful.

6 The words of the wicked ⁸lie in wait for blood, but ⁹the mouth of the upright delivers them.

7 ¹⁰The wicked are ¹¹overthrown and are no more, ¹²but the house of the righteous will stand.

8 A man is commended according to his good sense, but one of twisted mind is ¹³despised.

9 Better to be lowly and have a servant than to play the great man and lack bread.

10 ¹⁴Whoever is righteous has regard for the life of his beast, but the mercy of the wicked is cruel.

11 ¹⁵Whoever works his land ¹⁶will have plenty of bread, ¹⁷but he who follows ¹⁸worthless pursuits lacks sense.

12 Whoever is wicked covets ¹⁹the spoil of evildoers, but the root of the righteous bears fruit.

13 An evil man is ensnared ²⁰by the transgression of his lips, ²¹but the righteous escapes from trouble.

14 From the fruit of his mouth ²²a man is satisfied with good, ²³and the work of a man's hand comes back to him.

15 ²⁴The way of a fool is right in his own eyes, but a wise man listens to advice.

16 ²⁵The vexation of a fool is known at once, but the prudent ignores an insult.

17 ²⁶Whoever speaks^a the truth gives honest evidence, but ²⁷a false witness utters deceit.

18 ²⁸There is one whose rash words are like sword thrusts, but the tongue of the wise brings ²⁹healing.

19 Truthful lips endure forever, but ³⁰a lying tongue is but for a moment.

20 Deceit is in the heart of ³¹those who devise evil, but those who plan peace have joy.

21 ³²No ill befalls the righteous, but the wicked are filled with trouble.

22 ³³Lying lips are ³⁴an abomination to the LORD, ³⁵but those who act faithfully are his delight.
