The wise woman builds
Every wise woman builds her house, but a foolish woman tears hers down with her own hands. Whoever walks uprightly fears the LORD, but whoever is perverse in his ways despises him. A fool's mouth carries a rod of pride, but the lips of the wise preserve them. Where there are no oxen, the crib stays clean; but much increase comes through the strength of the ox. A faithful witness won't lie, but a false witness pours out lies. A mocker seeks wisdom and doesn't find it, but knowledge comes easily to a person of understanding. Leave the presence of a foolish man when you don't find words of knowledge on his lips. The wisdom of the sensible is to understand his way, but the folly of fools is deceit. Fools make a mock at sin, but among the righteous there is favour. The heart knows its own bitterness, and a stranger can't fully share its joy. The house of the wicked will be overthrown, but the tent of the upright will flourish. There is a way that seems right to a man, but its end is the ways of death. Even in laughter the heart can ache, and the end of that joy may be sorrow. The backslider in heart will be filled with his own ways, and a good man will be satisfied from himself. The simple believe every word, but the sensible look carefully where they're going. A wise man fears and departs from evil, but a fool rages and is confident. A quick-tempered man acts foolishly, and a man of wicked schemes is hated.
Every wise woman builds her house, but the foolish one pulls it down with her hands. The one who walks in his uprightness fears the Lord, but the one who's twisted in his ways looks down on him. In the mouth of the foolish is a rod of pride, but the lips of the wise will keep them. Where there are no oxen, the crib is clean. But plenty comes in by the strength of the ox. A faithful witness won't lie, but a false witness will speak lies. A mocker looks for wisdom and doesn't find it, but knowledge is easy to the one who understands. Get away from the presence of a foolish man, when you don't see the lips of knowledge in him. The wisdom of the careful is to understand his way, but the folly of fools is a trick. Fools make a joke of sin, but among the upright there's favour. The heart knows its own bitterness, and a stranger doesn't share in its joy. The house of the wicked will be overturned, but the tent of the upright will do well. There's a way that seems right to a man, but the end of it is the ways of death. Even in laughing the heart is sad, and the end of that gladness is heaviness. The one who turns back in heart will be filled with his own ways, and a good man will be satisfied from himself. The simple believes every word, but the careful man looks well at where he's going. A wise man fears and turns away from evil, but the fool rages and is confident. The one who's quick to anger acts foolishly, and a man of wicked plans is hated.
Every wise woman buildeth her house: but the foolish plucketh it down with her hands. He that walketh in his uprightness feareth the LORD: but he that is perverse in his ways despiseth him. In the mouth of the foolish is a rod of pride: but the lips of the wise shall preserve them. Where no oxen are, the crib is clean: but much increase is by the strength of the ox. A faithful witness will not lie: but a false witness will utter lies. A scorner seeketh wisdom, and findeth it not: but knowledge is easy unto him that understandeth. Go from the presence of a foolish man, when thou perceivest not in him the lips of knowledge. The wisdom of the prudent is to understand his way: but the folly of fools is deceit. Fools make a mock at sin: but among the righteous there is favour. The heart knoweth his own bitterness; and a stranger doth not intermeddle with his joy. The house of the wicked shall be overthrown: but the tabernacle of the upright shall flourish. There is a way which seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death. Even in laughter the heart is sorrowful; and the end of that mirth is heaviness. The backslider in heart shall be filled with his own ways: and a good man shall be satisfied from himself. The simple believeth every word: but the prudent man looketh well to his going. A wise man feareth, and departeth from evil: but the fool rageth, and is confident. He that is soon angry dealeth foolishly: and a man of wicked devices is hated.

Righteousness lifts up a nation
The simple inherit folly, but the sensible are crowned with knowledge. The evil bow before the good, and the wicked at the gates of the righteous. The poor man is hated even by his neighbour, but the rich have many friends. Whoever despises his neighbour sins, but whoever has mercy on the poor is blessed. Don't those who devise evil go astray? But mercy and truth belong to those who devise good. In all labour there is profit, but mere talk leads only to poverty. The crown of the wise is their riches, but the foolishness of fools is simply folly. A true witness delivers souls, but a deceitful witness speaks lies. In the fear of the LORD is strong confidence, and his children have a place of refuge. The fear of the LORD is a fountain of life, turning people away from the snares of death. A multitude of people is a king's honour, but a lack of people is the destruction of a prince. Whoever is slow to anger has great understanding, but a quick temper exalts folly. A sound heart is life to the flesh, but envy is rottenness to the bones. Whoever oppresses the poor reproaches his Maker, but whoever honours him has mercy on the poor. The wicked are driven away in their wickedness, but the righteous have hope even in death. Wisdom rests in the heart of a person of understanding, but even among fools it becomes known. Righteousness lifts up a nation, but sin brings shame on any people. The king's favour is towards a wise servant, but his anger is against one who causes shame.
The simple inherit folly, but the careful are crowned with knowledge. The evil bow down in front of the good, and the wicked at the gates of the righteous. The poor is hated even by his own neighbour, but the rich has plenty of mates. The one who looks down on his neighbour sins, but the one who has mercy on the poor is happy. Don't they go astray who think up evil? But mercy and truth will be to the ones who think up good. In all work there's gain, but the talk of the lips only leads to want. The crown of the wise is their riches, but the folly of fools is folly. A true witness rescues souls, but a false witness speaks lies. In the fear of the Lord is strong confidence, and his children will have a place of refuge. The fear of the Lord is a well of life, to turn away from the snares of death. In the crowd of people is the king's honour, but in the want of people is the ruin of the leader. The one who's slow to anger has great understanding, but the one who's quick in spirit lifts up folly. A sound heart is the life of the flesh, but jealousy is rot in the bones. The one who crushes the poor insults his Maker, but the one who honours him has mercy on the poor. The wicked is driven away in his wickedness, but the righteous has hope in his death.
