6 [the] house of A righteous [person] wealth great and with [the] income of a wicked [person] trouble.
The house of the just is very much strength: and in the fruits of the wicked is trouble.

Hell and destruction are before the Lord: how much more the hearts of the children of men? (Sheol h7585)
12 Not he loves a mocker reproof to him to wise [people] not he goes.
A corrupt man loveth not one that reproveth him: nor will he go to the wise.
13 A heart joyful it makes good a face and by sorrow of heart a spirit [is] stricken.

33 [the] fear of Yahweh [is the] correction of wisdom and [is] before honor humility.
The fear of the Lord is the lesson of wisdom: and humility goeth before glory.
