Proverbs 12
"The wicked desireth the net of evil men: but the root of the righteous yieldeth fruit.
The wicked is snared by the transgression of his lips: but the just shall come out of trouble.
A man shall be satisfied with good by the fruit of his mouth: and the recompence of a man's hands shall be rendered unto him. "
If you are drawn to evil, you will admire and desire those who has success based on what evil has to offer.
Good or bad, we are still bound by earth's perimeters and hence subjective to the evil of this world. However, only those who follows God's perimeters, will overcome.

Do what is right
Proverbs 12
"A man is praised according to his wisdom,
but men with warped minds are despised.
Better to be a nobody and yet have a servant
than pretend to be somebody and have no food.
A righteous man cares for the needs of his animal,
but the kindest acts of the wicked are cruel.
He who works his land will have abundant food,
but he who chases fantasies lacks judgment. "
"A man shall be commended according to his wisdom:
but he that is of a perverse heart shall be despised.
He that is despised, and hath a servant, is better
than he that honoureth himself, and lacketh bread.
A righteous man regardeth the life of his beast:
but the tender mercies of the wicked are cruel.
He that tilleth his land shall be satisfied with bread:
but he that followeth vain persons is void of understanding."

Discipline
Proverbs 12
"Whoever loves discipline loves knowledge,
but he who hates correction is stupid.
A good man obtains favor from the LORD,
but the LORD condemns a crafty man. "
What is discipline from God?
Did Job get disciplined? If so, is discipline challenges or disastrous?
Israelites was disciplined through the exodus?
Jonah disciplined through the sea and the "big fish"?
Humans was cleansed through the flood? Was that discipline?
So whoever loves disaster, pain, trials, suffering, loves knowledge?
Maybe I am not quite awake, but it does not seem quite right.
Are we supposed to be sadistic, or oppressed?
Or is it the evil one causes all the sufferings of this world, and if we do not follow God's directions and teachings, we are just plain sitting ducks, or gluttons for punishment.
I like to think and believe and know the latter is more probable.

Knowledge is power
Proverbs 11
"With his mouth the godless destroys his neighbor,
but through knowledge the righteous escape."
We are all effected by the evil one's deceit and terror, but only those who understands God's knowledge will be able to escape.
"The desire of the righteous ends only in good,
but the hope of the wicked only in wrath."
"If the righteous receive their due on earth,
how much more the ungodly and the sinner!"
"One man gives freely, yet gains even more;
another withholds unduly, but comes to poverty.
A generous man will prosper;
he who refreshes others will himself be refreshed.
People curse the man who hoards grain,
but blessing crowns him who is willing to sell. "

Reward
Proverbs 11
"The wicked man earns deceptive wages,
but he who sows righteousness reaps a sure reward.
The truly righteous man attains life,
but he who pursues evil goes to his death.
The LORD detests men of perverse heart
but he delights in those whose ways are blameless.
Be sure of this: The wicked will not go unpunished,
but those who are righteous will go free."
We are all going through this world together.
It is up to us whether we choose to do good or not.
God chooses those who do good in his eyes.

A gossip betrays a confidence,

For lack of guidance a nation falls,
but many advisers make victory sure."
Many advisers = good judgment = good understanding = trustworthy

The righteousness of the upright delivers them,
but the unfaithful are trapped by evil desires.
When a wicked man dies, his hope perishes;
all he expected from his power comes to nothing.
The righteous man is rescued from trouble,
and it comes on the wicked instead. "
Righteousness' power and result rest at the end of life.
The wicked has it's power and prosperity attained now, so in the end it is nothing.
Wickedness oppresses others and is perceived as power.
Righteousness powers comes from overcoming the oppression of the wicked.

"The way of the LORD is a refuge for the righteous,

Prospect:
1. an apparent probability of advancement, success, profit, etc.
2. the outlook for the future: good business prospects.
3. anticipation; expectation; a looking forward.
4. something in view as a source of profit.
It may not be joy now when we are on earth, but in the end, it will be when the day comes. And vice versa, the wicked will not see the fruit of their labor.

What you crave.
Proverbs 10
Sounds like a commercial doesn't it?
"The LORD does not let the righteous go hungry
but he thwarts the craving of the wicked."
I believe it is referring to a spiritual desire and not the physical hunger.
Hence the fasting of food. If we crave what the flesh wants, than we crave what this world craves, which is evil, and with that, we can never be fulfilled.
Jesus fasted for 40 days and nights to get himself ready for the worldly battle.
How do I fight the fight?

"Does not wisdom call out?

On the heights along the way,
where the paths meet, she takes her stand;
beside the gates leading into the city,
at the entrances, she cries aloud:
"To you, O men, I call out;
I raise my voice to all mankind.
You who are simple, gain prudence;
you who are foolish, gain understanding.
Listen, for I have worthy things to say;
I open my lips to speak what is right.
My mouth speaks what is true,
for my lips detest wickedness.
All the words of my mouth are just;
none of them is crooked or perverse.
To the discerning all of them are right;
they are faultless to those who have knowledge.
Choose my instruction instead of silver,
knowledge rather than choice gold,
for wisdom is more precious than rubies,
and nothing you desire can compare with her."
Get some Sisdom. Need some Wisdom. What is Wisdom?
Doing what is right according to God, and keeping them till the day he comes.

Adulteress

Adultery again!
"...they [God's wisdom] will keep you from the adulteress,
from the wayward wife with her seductive words."
"I saw among the simple,
I noticed among the young men,
a youth who lacked judgment."
" And beheld among the simple ones, I discerned among the youths, a young man void of understanding, " KJV
"All at once he followed her
like an ox going to the slaughter,
like a deer stepping into a noose
till an arrow pierces his liver,
like a bird darting into a snare,
little knowing it will cost him his life. "
Scary.
When we are "void of understanding," we are too easy of a prey.
