6 The houses of those who do what is right hold great wealth. But those who do what is wrong earn only trouble.
7 The lips of wise people spread knowledge. But that's not true of the hearts of foolish people.
8 The Lord hates the sacrifice of sinful people. But the prayers of honest people please him.
9 The Lord hates how sinners live. But he loves those who run after what is right.
10 Hard training is in store for anyone who leaves the right path. A person who hates to be corrected will die.
11 Death and the Grave lie open in front of the Lord. So the hearts of mere men certainly lie open to him!
