3. In every place are the eyes of Jehovah, Watching the evil and the good.
4. A healed tongue [is] a tree of life, And perverseness in it--a breach in the spirit.
5. A fool despiseth the instruction of his father, And whoso is regarding reproof is prudent.
6. [In] the house of the righteous [is] abundant strength, And in the increase of the wicked--trouble.
7. The lips of the wise scatter knowledge, And the heart of fools [is] not right.
8. The sacrifice of the wicked [is] an abomination to Jehovah, And the prayer of the upright [is] His delight.
9. An abomination to Jehovah [is] the way of the wicked, And whoso is pursuing righteousness He loveth.
10. Chastisement [is] grievous to him who is forsaking the path, Whoso is hating reproof dieth.
11. Sheol and destruction [are] before Jehovah, Surely also the hearts of the sons of men.
12. A scorner loveth not his reprover, Unto the wise he goeth not.
13. A joyful heart maketh glad the face, And by grief of heart is the spirit smitten.
