1He that loveth chastising or discipline, loveth knowing; but he that hateth blamings, is unwise.
2He that is good, shall draw to himself grace of the Lord; but he that trusteth in his thoughts, doeth wickedly.
3A man shall not be made strong by wickedness; and the root of just or rightwise men shall not be moved.
4A diligent woman is a crown to her husband; and rot is in the bones of that woman, that doeth things worthy of confusion.
5The thoughts of just or rightwise men be dooms; and the counsels of wicked men be guileful.
6The words of wicked men set treason to blood; the mouth of just or rightwise men shall deliver them.
7Overturn thou wicked men, and they shall not be; but the houses of just or rightwise men shall dwell perfectly.
