12:1 Whoso
loueth
instruction,
loueth
knowledge:
but
he
that
hateth
reproofe,
is
brutish.
12:2 A
good
man
obtaineth
fauour
of
the
Lord:
but
a
man
of
wicked
deuices
will
he
condemne.
12:3 A
man
shall
not
bee
established
by
wickednesse:
but
the
roote
of
the
righteous
shall
not
be
mooued.
12:4 A
vertuous
woman
is
a
crowne
to
her
husband:
but
she
that
maketh
ashamed,
is
as
rottennesse
in
his
bones.
12:5 The
thoughts
of
the
righteous
are
right:
but
the
counsels
of
the
wicked
are
deceit.
12:6 The
words
of
the
wicked
are
to
lie
in
waite
for
blood:
but
the
mouth
of
the
vpright
shall
deliuer
them.
12:7 The
wicked
are
ouerthrowen,
and
are
not:
but
the
house
of
the
righteous
shall
stand.
12:8 A
man
shall
be
commended
according
to
his
wisedome:
but
hee
that
is
of
a
peruerse
heart,
shall
be
despised.
12:9 Hee
that
is
despised
and
hath
a
seruant,
is
better
then
he
that
honoureth
himselfe,
and
lacketh
bread.
12:10 A
righteous
man
regardeth
the
life
of
his
beast:
but
the
tender
mercies
of
the
wicked
are
cruell.
12:11 Hee
that
tilleth
his
land,
shall
bee
satisfied
with
bread:
but
he
that
followeth
vaine
persons,
is
void
of
vnderstanding.
12:12 The
wicked
desireth
the
net
of
euill
men:
but
the
roote
of
the
righteous
yeeldeth
fruit.
12:13 The
wicked
is
snared
by
the
transgression
of
his
lippes:
but
the
iust
shall
come
out
of
trouble.
12:14 A
man
shall
bee
satisfied
with
good
by
the
fruit
of
his
mouth,
and
the
recompence
of
a
mans
hands
shall
bee
rendred
vnto
him.
12:15 The
way
of
a
foole
is
right
in
his
owne
eyes:
but
he
that
hearkeneth
vnto
counsell,
is
wise.
12:16 A
fooles
wrath
is
presently
knowen:
but
a
prudent
man
couereth
shame.
12:17 He
that
speaketh
trueth,
sheweth
foorth
righteousnesse:
but
a
false
witnesse,
deceit.
12:18 There
is
that
speaketh
like
the
pearcings
of
a
sword:
but
the
tongue
of
the
wise
is
health.
12:19 The
lippe
of
trueth
shall
bee
established
for
euer:
but
a
lying
tongue
is
but
for
a
moment.
12:20 Deceit
is
in
the
heart
of
them
that
imagine
euill:
but
to
the
counsellours
of
peace,
is
ioy.
12:21 There
shall
no
euill
happen
to
the
iust:
but
the
wicked
shall
bee
filled
with
mischiefe.
12:22 Lying
lippes
are
abomination
to
the
Lord:
but
they
that
deale
truely,
are
his
delight.
12:23 A
prudent
man
concealeth
knowledge:
but
the
heart
of
fooles
proclaimeth
foolishnesse.
12:24 The
hand
of
the
diligent
shall
beare
rule:
but
the
slouthfull
shall
bee
vnder
tribute.
12:25 Heauinesse
in
the
heart
of
man
maketh
it
stoope:
but
a
good
word
maketh
it
glad.
12:26 The
righteous
is
more
excellent
then
his
neighbour:
but
the
way
of
the
wicked
seduceth
them.
12:27 The
slouthfull
man
rosteth
not
that
which
he
tooke
in
hunting:
but
the
substance
of
a
diligent
man
is
precious.
12:28 In
the
way
of
righteousnesse
is
life,
and
in
the
path-way
thereof
there
is
no
death.
