Proverbs 12:1-6 World English Bible (WEB)

1. Whoever loves correction loves knowledge, but he who hates reproof is stupid.

2. A good man shall obtain favor from Yahweh, but he will condemn a man of wicked devices.

3. A man shall not be established by wickedness, but the root of the righteous shall not be moved.

4. A worthy woman is the crown of her husband, but a disgraceful wife is as rottenness in his bones.

5. The thoughts of the righteous are just, but the advice of the wicked is deceitful.

6. The words of the wicked are about lying in wait for blood, but the speech of the upright rescues them.
