Proverbs 12:7-12

⁷The wicked are overthrown, and are no more; But the house of the righteous shall stand.

⁸A man will be commended according to his wisdom; But he that is of a perverse heart shall be despised.

⁹Better is he that demeaneth himself, and hath a servant, Than he that exalteth himself, and hath no bread.

¹⁰The righteous man careth for the life of his beast; But the tender mercies of the wicked are cruel.

¹¹He who tilleth his own land shall be satisfied with bread; But he who followeth worthless persons is void of understanding.

¹²The wicked man longeth after the prey of evil-doers; But the root of the righteous yieldeth fruit.
