4 A virtuous woman 'is' a crown to her husband, And as rottenness in his bones 'is' one causing shame.
5 The thoughts of the righteous 'are' justice, The counsels of the wicked -- deceit.
6 The words of the wicked 'are': 'Lay wait for blood,' And the mouth of the upright delivereth them.
7 Overthrow the wicked, and they are not, And the house of the righteous standeth.
8 According to his wisdom is a man praised, And the perverted of heart becometh despised.
