6 Whoever hates correction walks the sinner’s path,but whoever fears the Lord repents in his heart.
7 Glib speakers are widely known,but when they slip the sensible perceive it.
8 Those who build their houses with someone else’s moneyare like those who collect stones for their funeral mounds.
9 A band of criminals is like a bundle of tow;they will end in a flaming fire.
10 The path of sinners is smooth stones,but its end is the pit of Sheol.
11 Those who keep the Law control their thoughts;perfect fear of the Lord is wisdom.
12 One who is not clever can never be taught,but there is a cleverness filled with bitterness.
