2 The good obtains favour from יהוה, But the man of wicked devices He declares wrong.
3 A man is not established by wrongness, But the root of the righteous shall not be moved.
4 A capable wife is the crown of her husband, But one causing shame is like rottenness in his bones.
5 The thoughts of the righteous are right-ruling, The counsels of the wrong are deceit.
6 The words of the wrong are, “Lie in wait for blood,” But the mouth of the straight delivers them.
7 The wrong are overthrown, And are no more, But the house of the righteous stands.
8 A man is praised according to his wisdom, But the perverted of heart becomes despised.
