12 The Righteous One ¹observes the house of the wicked; he throws the wicked down to ruin.

13 ²Whoever closes his ear to the cry of the poor will himself call out and not be answered.

14 ³A gift in secret averts anger, and a concealed bribe,^a strong wrath.

15 When justice is done, it is a joy to the righteous ⁴but terror to evildoers.

16 One who wanders from the way of good sense ⁵will rest in the assembly of the dead.

17 Whoever loves pleasure will be a poor man; he who loves wine and oil will not be rich.

18 ⁶The wicked is a ⁷ransom for the righteous, and the traitor for the upright.

19 It is ⁸better to live in a desert land than with a quarrelsome and fretful woman.

20 ⁹Precious treasure and oil are in a wise man's dwelling, but a foolish man ¹⁰devours it.

21 Whoever ¹¹pursues righteousness and kindness will find ¹²life, righteousness, and honor.

22 ¹³A wise man scales the city of the mighty and brings down the stronghold in which they trust.

23 ¹⁴Whoever keeps his mouth and his tongue ¹⁵keeps himself out of ¹⁶trouble.

24 ¹⁷"Scoffer" is the name of the arrogant, haughty man who acts with arrogant pride.

25 The desire of ¹⁸the sluggard kills him, for his hands refuse to labor.

26 All day long he craves and craves, but the righteous ¹⁹gives and does not hold back.

27 ²⁰The sacrifice of the wicked is an abomination; how much more ²¹when he brings it with evil intent.

28 ²²A false witness will perish, but the word of a man who hears will endure.

29 A wicked man puts on a bold face, but the upright ²³gives thought to^b his ways.

30 ²⁴No wisdom, no understanding, no counsel can avail against the LORD.

31 ²⁵The horse is made ready for the day of battle, but ²⁶the victory belongs to the LORD.
