Then you will find favor and high regard
in the sight of God and man.

For the one who finds me finds life
and obtains favor from the Lord,

The one who searches for what is good finds favor,
but if someone looks for trouble, it will come to him.

The good person obtains favor from the Lord,
but He condemns a man who schemes.

Good sense wins favor,
but the way of the treacherous never changes.

When a king’s face lights up, there is life;
his favor is like a cloud with spring rain.

A man who finds a wife finds a good thing
and obtains favor from the Lord.

Many seek a ruler’s favor,
and everyone is a friend of one who gives gifts.

A king’s rage is like the roaring of a lion,
but his favor is like dew on the grass.

A good name is to be chosen over great wealth;
favor is better than silver and gold.

One who rebukes a person will later find more favor
than one who flatters with his tongue.

Many seek a ruler’s favor,
but a man receives justice from the Lord.
