Book 20 : PROVERBS - Chapter 012
012:001
A good man obtaineth favour of the LORD: but a man of wicked
devices will he condemn
012:002
A man shall not be established by wickedness: but the root of
the righteous shall not be moved
012:003
A virtuous woman is a crown to her husband: but she that
maketh ashamed is as rottenness in his bones
012:004
The thoughts of the righteous are right: but the counsels of
the wicked are deceit
012:005
The words of the wicked are to lie in wait for blood: but the
mouth of the upright shall deliver them
012:006
The wicked are overthrown, and are not: but the house of the
righteous shall stand
012:007
A man shall be commended according to his wisdom: but he that
is of a perverse heart shall be despised
012:008
He that is despised, and hath a servant, is better than he
that honoureth himself, and lacketh bread
012:009
A righteous man regardeth the life of his beast: but the
tender mercies of the wicked are cruel
012:010
He that tilleth his land shall be satisfied with bread: but he
that followeth vain persons is void of understanding
012:011
The wicked desireth the net of evil men: but the root of the
righteous yieldeth fruit
012:012
The wicked is snared by the transgression of his lips: but the
just shall come out of trouble
012:013
A man shall be satisfied with good by the fruit of his mouth:
and the recompence of a man's hands shall be rendered unto
him
012:014
The way of a fool is right in his own eyes: but he that
hearkeneth unto counsel is wise
012:015
A fool's wrath is presently known: but a prudent man covereth
shame
012:016
He that speaketh truth sheweth forth righteousness: but a
false witness deceit
012:017
There is that speaketh like the piercings of a sword: but the
tongue of the wise is health
012:018
The lip of truth shall be established for ever: but a lying
tongue is but for a moment
012:019
Deceit is in the heart of them that imagine evil: but to the
counsellors of peace is joy
012:020
There shall no evil happen to the just: but the wicked shall
be filled with mischief
012:021
Lying lips are abomination to the LORD: but they that deal
truly are his delight
012:022
A prudent man concealeth knowledge: but the heart of fools
proclaimeth foolishness
012:023
The hand of the diligent shall bear rule: but the slothful
shall be under tribute
012:024
Heaviness in the heart of man maketh it stoop: but a good word
maketh it glad
012:025
The righteous is more excellent than his neighbour: but the
way of the wicked seduceth them
012:026
The slothful man roasteth not that which he took in hunting:
but the substance of a diligent man is precious
012:027
In the way of righteousness is life: and in the pathway
thereof there is no death
