These six things does the LORD hate: yea, seven are an abomination unto him:

But whosoever commits adultery with a woman lacks understanding: he that does it destroys his own soul.

Does not wisdom cry? and understanding put forth her voice?

The merciful man does good to his own soul: but he that is cruel troubles his own flesh.

The heart knows its own bitterness; and a stranger does not share its joy.

The lips of the wise disperse knowledge: but the heart of the foolish does not so.

He that begets a fool does it to his sorrow: and the father of a fool has no joy.

A merry heart does good like a medicine: but a broken spirit dries the bones.

Thorns and snares are in the way of the perverse: he that does keep his soul shall be far from them.

If you say, Behold, we knew it not; does not he that weighs the heart consider it? and he that keeps your soul, does not he know it? and shall not he render to every man according to his works?

The north wind brings forth rain: so does a backbiting tongue an angry countenance.

As the door turns upon its hinges, so does the slothful upon his bed.

Ointment and perfume rejoice the heart: so does the sweetness of a man's friend by hearty counsel.

For riches are not forever: and does the crown endure to every generation?

A man that does violence to the blood of any person shall flee to a pit; let no man help him.

In the transgression of an evil man there is a snare: but the righteous does sing and rejoice.

There is a generation that curses their father, and does not bless their mother.

The heart of her husband does safely trust in her, so that he shall have no lack of gain.
