Proverbs 12
- 1 Whoever loves instruction loves knowledge: but he that hates reproof is brutish.
- 2 A good man obtains favor of the LORD: but a man of wicked devices will he condemn.
- 3 A man shall not be established by wickedness: but the root of the righteous shall not be moved.
- 4 A virtuous woman is a crown to her husband: but she that makes ashamed is as rottenness in his bones.
- 5 The thoughts of the righteous are right: but the counsels of the wicked are deceit.
- 6 The words of the wicked are to lie in wait for blood: but the mouth of the upright shall deliver them.
- 7 The wicked are overthrown, and are not: but the house of the righteous shall stand.
- 8 A man shall be commended according to his wisdom: but he that is of a perverse heart shall be despised.
- 9 He that is despised, and has a servant, is better than he that honors himself, and lacks bread.
- 10 A righteous man regards the life of his beast: but the tender mercies of the wicked are cruel.
- 11 He that tills his land shall be satisfied with bread: but he that follows vain persons is void of understanding.
- 12 The wicked desires the net of evil men: but the root of the righteous yields fruit.
- 13 The wicked is snared by the transgression of his lips: but the just shall come out of trouble.
- 14 A man shall be satisfied with good by the fruit of his mouth: and the recompense of a man’s hands shall be rendered to him.
- 15 The way of a fool is right in his own eyes: but he that listens to counsel is wise.
- 16 A fool’s wrath is presently known: but a prudent man covers shame.
- 17 He that speaks truth shows forth righteousness: but a false witness deceit.
- 18 There is that speaks like the piercings of a sword: but the tongue of the wise is health.
- 19 The lip of truth shall be established for ever: but a lying tongue is but for a moment.
- 20 Deceit is in the heart of them that imagine evil: but to the counsellors of peace is joy.
- 21 There shall no evil happen to the just: but the wicked shall be filled with mischief.
- 22 Lying lips are abomination to the LORD: but they that deal truly are his delight.
- 23 A prudent man conceals knowledge: but the heart of fools proclaims foolishness.
- 24 The hand of the diligent shall bear rule: but the slothful shall be under tribute.
- 25 Heaviness in the heart of man makes it stoop: but a good word makes it glad.
- 26 The righteous is more excellent than his neighbor: but the way of the wicked seduces them.
- 27 The slothful man roasts not that which he took in hunting: but the substance of a diligent man is precious.
- 28 In the way of righteousness is life: and in the pathway thereof there is no death.

American King James Version (akjv - 2.1)
2023-12-27English (en)
American King James Version
Produced by Stone Engelbrite
This is a new translation of the Bible, based on the original King James Version. It is a simple word for word update from the King James English. I have taken care to change nothing doctrinely, but to simply update the spelling and vocabulary. I have not changed the grammar because that could alter it doctrinely.
I am hereby putting the American King James version of the Bible into the public domain on November 8, 1999.
