20. The tongue of the just is as choice silver: but the heart of the wicked is nothing worth.
21. The lips of the just teach many: but they that are ignorant, shall die in the want of understanding.
22. The blessing of the Lord maketh men rich: neither shall affliction be joined to them.
23. A fool worketh mischief as it were for sport: but wisdom is prudence to a man.
24. That which the wicked feareth, shall come upon him: to the just their desire shall be given.
25. As a tempest that passeth, so the wicked shall be no more: but the just is as an everlasting foundation.
26. As vinegar to the teeth, and smoke to the eyes, so is the sluggard to them that sent him.
