23. He who rebukes a man shall afterward find more favor than he who flatters with the tongue.
24. Whoever robs his father or his mother and says, This is no sin–he is in the same class as [an open, lawless robber and] a destroyer.
25. He who is of a greedy spirit stirs up strife, but he who puts his trust in the Lord shall be enriched and blessed.
26. He who leans on, trusts in, and is confident of his own mind and heart is a [self-confident] fool, but he who walks in skillful and godly Wisdom shall be delivered. [James 1:5.]
