1. He that loveth correction, loveth knowledge: but he that hateth reproof is foolish.
2. He that is good, shall draw grace from the Lord: but he that trusteth in his own devices doth wickedly.
3. Men shall not be strengthened by wickedness: and the root of the just shall not be moved.
4. A diligent woman is a crown to her husband: and she that doth things worthy of confusion, is a rottenness in his bones.
5. The thoughts of the just are judgments: and the counsels of the wicked are deceitful.
6. The words of the wicked lie in wait for blood: the mouth of the just shall deliver them.
7. Turn the wicked, and they shall not be: but the house of the just shall stand firm.
