Proverbs 12:5-13

⁵Good people make plans that are fair, but the advice of the wicked is deceptive.

⁶The words of the wicked are like a violent ambush, but those of honest people save them.

⁷The wicked are destroyed, and they're gone, but the family of the good stands firm.

⁸People are appreciated for talking sense, but those with perverted minds are despised.

⁹Better to be a humble man serving himself than a boastful man who has nothing to eat.

¹⁰Good people look after their animals, but the care given by wicked is really cruelty.

¹¹If you cultivate the land you'll have plenty of food, but if you chase after worthless things you're stupid.

¹²Wicked people long for ill-gotten gains, but good people are productive themselves.

¹³The wicked trap themselves by their own sinful words, but good people escape trouble.
