2 The lord approves of those who are good,but he condemns those who plan wickedness.
3 Wickedness never brings stability,but the godly have deep roots.
4 A worthy wife is a crown for her husband,but a disgraceful woman is like cancer in his bones.
5 The plans of the godly are just;the advice of the wicked is treacherous.
6 The words of the wicked are like a murderous ambush,but the words of the godly save lives.
7 The wicked die and disappear,but the family of the godly stands firm.
