Proverbs 12 (LSV)
1 Whoever is loving instruction, is loving knowledge, || And whoever is hating reproof [is] brutish. 2 The good brings forth favor from YHWH, || And the man of wicked schemes He condemns. 3 A man is not established by wickedness, || And the root of the righteous is not moved. 4 A virtuous woman [is] a crown to her husband, || And as rottenness in his bones [is] one causing shame. 5 The thoughts of the righteous [are] justice, || The counsels of the wicked—deceit. 6 The words of the wicked [are]: “Lay [in] wait for blood,” || And the mouth of the upright delivers them. 7 Overthrow the wicked, and they are not, || And the house of the righteous stands. 8 A man is praised according to his wisdom, || And the perverted of heart becomes despised. 9 Better [is] the lightly esteemed who has a servant, || Than the self-honored who lacks bread. 10 The righteous knows the life of his beast, || And the mercies of the wicked [are] cruel. 11 Whoever is tilling the ground is satisfied [with] bread, || And whoever is pursuing vanities is lacking heart, 12 The wicked has desired the net of evildoers, || And the root of the righteous gives. 13 The snare of the wicked [is] in transgression of the lips, || And the righteous goes out from distress. 14 One [is] satisfied [with] good from the fruit of the mouth, || And the deed of man’s hands returns to him. 15 The way of a fool [is] right in his own eyes, || And whoever is listening to counsel [is] wise. 16 The fool—his anger is known in a day, || And the prudent is covering shame. 17 Whoever utters faithfulness declares righteousness, || And a false witness—deceit. 18 A rash speaker is like piercings of a sword, || And the tongue of the wise is healing. 19 The lip of truth is established forever, || And a tongue of falsehood for a moment. 20 Deceit [is] in the heart of those devising evil, || But for counselors of peace—joy. 21 No iniquity is desired by the righteous, || And the wicked have been full of evil. 22 Lying lips [are] an abomination to YHWH, || And steadfast doers [are] his delight. 23 A prudent man is concealing knowledge, || And the heart of fools proclaims folly. 24 The hand of the diligent rules, || And slothfulness becomes tributary. 25 Sorrow in the heart of a man bows down, || And a good word makes him glad. 26 The righteous searches his companion, || And the way of the wicked causes them to err. 27 The slothful does not roast his game, || And the wealth of a diligent man is precious. 28 In the path of righteousness [is] life, || And in the way of [that] path [is] no death!
