2. A good man will obtain favor from the Lord, But He will condemn a man who devises evil.
3. A man will not be established by wickedness, But the root of the righteous will not be moved.
4. An excellent wife is the crown of her husband, But she who shames him is like rottenness in his bones.
5. The thoughts of the righteous are just, But the counsels of the wicked are deceitful.
6. The words of the wicked lie in wait for blood, But the mouth of the upright will deliver them.
