1He who loveth correction loveth knowledge; But he who hateth rebuke remaineth stupid.
2The good man obtaineth favor from the LORD; But the man of wicked devices he condemneth.
3A man shall not be established by wickedness; But the root of the righteous shall not be moved.
4A virtuous woman is a crown to her husband; But she who causeth shame is as rottenness in his bones.
5The purposes of the righteous are just; The designs of the wicked are deceitful.
Proverbs 12
