Proverbs 12:8

Visdom

6 The words of the wicked lie in wait for blood, but the speech of the upright rescues them.

7 The wicked are overthrown and perish, but the house of the righteous will stand.

A man is praised according to his wisdom, but a twisted mind is despised.

9 Better to be lightly esteemed yet have a servant, than to be self-important but lack food.

10 A righteous man regards the life of his animal, but the tender mercies of the wicked are only cruelty.
