1 The wise woman builds her house, But the foolish tears it down with her own hands.
2 He who walks in his uprightness fears the Lord, But he who is devious in his ways despises Him.
3 In the mouth of the foolish is a rod for his back, But the lips of the wise will protect them.
4 Where no oxen are, the manger is clean, But much revenue comes by the strength of the ox.
