Proverbs Chapter 12 1-9

Whoever loves instruction loves knowledge,
but he who hates reproof is stupid.
A good man obtains favour from the LORD:
but a man of wicked devices is condemned.
A man shall not be established by wickedness:
but the root of the righteous shall not be moved.
A virtuous woman is a crown to her husband:
but she that makes ashamed is as rottenness to his bones.
The thoughts of the righteous are right:
but the counsels of the wicked is deceit.
The words of the wicked are to lie in wait for blood:
but the mouth of the upright shall deliver them.
The wicked are overthrown and are no more:
but the house of the upright shall stand.
A man shall be commended according to his wisdom:
but he that is of a perverse heart shall be despised.
Better to be a nobody and have a servant,
than to pretend to be somebody and have no food.
