Proverbs 11:16-23
Holman Christian Standard Bible
16 A gracious woman gains honor,
but violent[a] men gain only riches.
18 The wicked man earns an empty wage,
but the one who sows righteousness, a true reward.(C)
20 Those with twisted minds are detestable to the Lord,
but those with blameless conduct are His delight.(F)
21 Be assured[b] that the wicked
will not go unpunished,(G)
but the offspring of the righteous will escape.
22 A beautiful woman who rejects good sense
is like a gold ring in a pig’s snout.(H)
