"He is worth hating." vs " He is worth being hated."

[Tom]

Hi

Could you please tell me if the following sentences are correct and carry the same meaning?

[Mister Micawber]

.
Worth indicates value, so the semantics are odd.

She is worth loving / She is worth being loved-- correct and synonymous. The active is stronger and more effective.
