Proverbs 12:3-5
Living Bible
3 Wickedness never brings real success; only the godly have that.
4 A worthy wife is her husband’s joy and crown; the other kind corrodes his strength and tears down everything he does.
5 A good man’s mind is filled with honest thoughts; an evil man’s mind is crammed with lies.
