Proverbs 12:5-9 New International Version (NIV)
5The plans of the righteous are just,
but the advice of the wicked is deceitful.
6 The words of the wicked lie in wait for blood,
but the speech of the upright rescues them.
7 The wicked are overthrown and are no more,
but the house of the righteous stands firm.
8 A person is praised according to their prudence,
and one with a warped mind is despised.
9 Better to be a nobody and yet have a servant
than pretend to be somebody and have no food.
The ways of the righteous man are the ways of God; but the wicked are deceivers, trying to convince others that lies are truth. Suffering comes to all; but the wicked cannot stand up to trials, because they have no source of strength (Jesus), to rely upon. A righteous person will stand firm in adversity knowing that God will see him through.

MITHALI 12:5-9
5 Mawazo ya mwenye haki ni adili; Bali mashauri ya mtu mwovu ni hadaa.
6 Maneno ya waovu huotea damu; Bali kinywa cha wanyofu kitawaokoa.
7 Waovu huangamia, hata hawako tena; Bali nyumba ya mwenye haki itasimama.
8 Mtu atasifiwa kwa kadiri ya akili zake; Bali mwenye moyo wa ukaidi atadharauliwa.
9 Afadhali mtu anayedharauliwa, ikiwa ana mtumwa, Kuliko ajisifuye, ikiwa anahitaji chakula.
Njia za mwenye haki ni njia za Mungu; bali waovu ni waongo, hujaribu kuwashawishi watu ya kuwa uongo ni kweli. Mateso huja kwa wote; lakini waovu hawataweza kuyavumilia kwa sababu hawana nguvu ya kuwasaidia, yaani Yesu Kristo. Mtu mwenye haki atasimama imara katika shida akijua kuwa Mungu hatamwacha aangamie.
