Proverbs 12:1–3

Whoever loves discipline loves knowledge,

but he who hates reproof is stupid.

A good man obtains favor from the Lord,

but a man of evil devices he condemns.

No one is established by wickedness,

but the root of the righteous will never be moved.

Whoever loves discipline loves knowledge,

but whoever hates correction is stupid.

Good people obtain favor from the Lord,

but he condemns those who devise wicked schemes.

No one can be established through wickedness,

but the righteous cannot be uprooted.

Whoever loves discipline loves knowledge,

but one who hates correction is stupid.

One who is good obtains favor from the Lord,

but he condemns a person who schemes.

No one can be made secure by wickedness,

but the root of the righteous is immovable.

To learn, you must love discipline;

it is stupid to hate correction.

The Lord approves of those who are good,

but he condemns those who plan wickedness.

Wickedness never brings stability,

but the godly have deep roots.

He who loves discipline loves knowledge,

but he who hates rebuke is stupid.

The good obtains favor from Yahweh,

but anyone who schemes, he condemns.

A person will not be established by wickedness,

but the root of the righteous will not be moved.

Whoso loveth instruction loveth knowledge:

But he that hateth reproof is brutish.

A good man obtaineth favour of the Lord:

But a man of wicked devices will he condemn.

A man shall not be established by wickedness:

But the root of the righteous shall not be moved.
