3 No one can be established through wickedness,but a righteous root cannot be moved.
4 A noble wife is the crown of her husband,but the wife who acts shamefully is like rottenness in his bones.
5 The plans of the righteous are just;the counsels of the wicked are deceitful.
6 The words of the wicked lie in wait to shed innocent blood,but the words of the upright will deliver them.
7 The wicked are overthrown and perish,but the righteous household will stand.
8 A person is praised in accordance with his wisdom,but the one who has a twisted mind is despised.
