7 ¹The lips of the wise spread knowledge; ²not so the hearts of fools.^a

8 ³The sacrifice of the wicked is an abomination to the LORD, but ⁴the prayer of the upright is acceptable to him.

9 The way of the wicked is an abomination to the LORD, but he loves him ⁵who pursues righteousness.

10 There is ⁶severe discipline for him who forsakes the way; ⁷whoever hates reproof will die.

11 Sheol and Abaddon lie open before the LORD; how much more ⁸the hearts of the children of man!

12 ⁹A scoffer ¹⁰does not like to be reproved; he will not go to the wise.

13 ¹¹A glad heart makes a cheerful face, but by ¹²sorrow of heart the spirit is ¹³crushed.

14 ¹⁴The 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 ¹⁵the cheerful of heart has a continual feast.

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

17 ¹⁷Better is a dinner of herbs where love is than ¹⁸a fattened ox and hatred with it.

18 ¹⁹A hot-tempered man ²⁰stirs up strife, but he who is ²¹slow to anger quiets contention.

19 The way of ²²a sluggard is like a hedge of ²³thorns, but the path of the upright is ²⁴a level highway.

20 ²⁵A wise son makes a glad father, but a foolish man despises his mother.

21 ²⁶Folly is a joy to him who lacks sense, but a man of understanding ²⁷walks straight ahead.

22 ²⁸Without counsel plans fail, but with many advisers they succeed.

23 To make an apt answer is a joy to a man, and ²⁹a word in season, how good it is!

24 The path of life leads upward ³⁰for the prudent, that he may turn away from Sheol beneath.

25 The LORD tears down the house of ³¹the proud but ³²maintains ³³the widow's boundaries.

26 ³⁴The thoughts of the wicked are an abomination to the LORD, but ³⁵gracious words are pure.

27 Whoever is ³⁶greedy for unjust gain ³⁷troubles his own household, but he who hates ³⁸bribes will live.
