21. He who pampers his servant from childhoodWill have him as a son in the end.
22. An angry man stirs up strife,And a furious man abounds in transgression.
23. A man’s pride will bring him low,But the humble in spirit will retain honor.
24. Whoever is a partner with a thief hates his own life;He swears to tell the truth, but reveals nothing.
25. The fear of man brings a snare,But whoever trusts in the Lord shall be safe.
26. Many seek the ruler’s favor,But justice for man comes from the Lord.
