Part 12

20:011:019 As righteousness tendeth to life: so he that pursueth evil pursueth it to his own death.

20:011:020 They that are of a froward heart are abomination to the LORD: but such as are upright in their way are his delight.

20:011:021 Though hand join in hand, the wicked shall not be unpunished: but the seed of the righteous shall be delivered.

20:011:022 As a jewel of gold in a swine's snout, so is a fair woman which is without discretion.

20:011:023 The desire of the righteous is only good: but the expectation of the wicked is wrath.

20:011:024 There is that scattereth, and yet increaseth; and there is that withholdeth more than is meet, but it tendeth to poverty.

20:011:025 The liberal soul shall be made fat: and he that watereth shall be watered also himself.

20:011:026 He that withholdeth corn, the people shall curse him: but blessing shall be upon the head of him that selleth it.

20:011:027 He that diligently seeketh good procureth favour: but he that seeketh mischief, it shall come unto him.

20:011:028 He that trusteth in his riches shall fall; but the righteous shall flourish as a branch.

20:011:029 He that troubleth his own house shall inherit the wind: and the fool shall be servant to the wise of heart.

20:011:030 The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life; and he that winneth souls is wise.

20:011:031 Behold, the righteous shall be recompensed in the earth: much more the wicked and the sinner.

20:012:001 Whoso loveth instruction loveth knowledge: but he that hateth reproof is brutish.

20:012:002 A good man obtaineth favour of the LORD: but a man of wicked devices will he condemn.

20:012:003 A man shall not be established by wickedness: but the root of the righteous shall not be moved.

20:012:004 A virtuous woman is a crown to her husband: but she that maketh ashamed is as rottenness in his bones.

20:012:005 The thoughts of the righteous are right: but the counsels of the wicked are deceit.

20:012:006 The words of the wicked are to lie in wait for blood: but the mouth of the upright shall deliver them.

20:012:007 The wicked are overthrown, and are not: but the house of the righteous shall stand.

20:012:008 A man shall be commended according to his wisdom: but he that is of a perverse heart shall be despised.

20:012:009 He that is despised, and hath a servant, is better than he that honoureth himself, and lacketh bread.

20:012:010 A righteous man regardeth the life of his beast: but the tender mercies of the wicked are cruel.

20:012:011 He that tilleth his land shall be satisfied with bread: but he that followeth vain persons is void of understanding.

20:012:012 The wicked desireth the net of evil men: but the root of the righteous yieldeth fruit.

20:012:013 The wicked is snared by the transgression of his lips: but the just shall come out of trouble.

20:012:014 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.

20:012:015 The way of a fool is right in his own eyes: but he that hearkeneth unto counsel is wise.
