Proverbs 12:1-7 Holy Bible: Easy-To-Read Version (ETR)

1. Whoever loves discipline loves to learn; whoever hates to be corrected is stupid.

2. It is good to learn what pleases the Lord, because he condemns those who plan to do wrong.

3. Evil people are never safe, but good people remain safe and secure.

4. A good wife is like a crown to her husband, but a shameful wife is like a cancer.

5. Good people are honest and fair in all they do, but those who are evil lie and cannot be trusted.

6. Evil people use their words to hurt others, but the words from good people can save others from danger.

7. When evil people are destroyed, they are gone and forgotten, but good people are remembered long after they are gone.
