5 ¹A fool ²despises his father's instruction, but ³whoever heeds reproof is prudent.

6 In the house of the righteous there is much treasure, but trouble befalls the income of the wicked.

7 ⁴The lips of the wise spread knowledge; ⁵not so the hearts of fools.^a

8 ⁶The sacrifice of the wicked is an abomination to the LORD, but ⁷the prayer of the upright is acceptable to him.

9 The way of the wicked is an abomination to the LORD, but he loves him ⁸who pursues righteousness.

10 There is ⁹severe discipline for him who forsakes the way; ¹⁰whoever hates reproof will die.

11 Sheol and Abaddon lie open before the LORD; how much more ¹¹the hearts of the children of man!

12 ¹²A scoffer ¹³does not like to be reproved; he will not go to the wise.

13 ¹⁴A glad heart makes a cheerful face, but by ¹⁵sorrow of heart the spirit is ¹⁶crushed.

14 ¹⁷The heart of him who has understanding seeks knowledge, but the mouths of fools feed on folly.

15 All the days of the afflicted are evil, but ¹⁸the cheerful of heart has a continual feast.

16 ¹⁹Better is a little with the fear of the LORD than great treasure and trouble with it.

17 ²⁰Better is a dinner of herbs where love is than ²¹a fattened ox and hatred with it.

18 ²²A hot-tempered man ²³stirs up strife, but he who is ²⁴slow to anger quiets contention.

19 The way of ²⁵a sluggard is like a hedge of ²⁶thorns, but the path of the upright is ²⁷a level highway.

20 ²⁸A wise son makes a glad father, but a foolish man despises his mother.

21 ²⁹Folly is a joy to him who lacks sense, but a man of understanding ³⁰walks straight ahead.

22 ³¹Without counsel plans fail, but with many advisers they succeed.

23 To make an apt answer is a joy to a man, and ³²a word in season, how good it is!

24 The path of life leads upward ³³for the prudent, that he may turn away from Sheol beneath.

25 The LORD tears down the house of ³⁴the proud but ³⁵maintains ³⁶the widow's boundaries.
