1 Every wise woman builds her household,but a foolish woman tears it down with her own hands.
2 The one who walks in his uprightness fears the Lord,but the one who is perverted in his ways despises him.
3 In the speech of a fool is a rod for his back,but the words of the wise protect them.
4 Where there are no oxen, the feeding trough is clean,but an abundant harvest is produced by strong oxen.
