1Whoso is loving instruction, is loving knowledge, And whoso is hating reproof is brutish.
2The good bringeth forth favour from Jehovah, And the man of wicked devices He condemneth.
3A man is not established by wickedness, And the root of the righteous is not moved.
4A virtuous woman is a crown to her husband, And as rottenness in his bones is one causing shame.
5The thoughts of the righteous are justice, The counsels of the wicked — deceit.
