17. The road to life is a disciplined life;ignore correction and you’re lost for good.
18. Liars secretly hoard hatred;fools openly spread slander.
19. The more talk, the less truth;the wise measure their words.
20. The speech of a good person is worth waiting for;the blabber of the wicked is worthless.
21. The talk of a good person is rich fare for many,but chatterboxes die of an empty heart.
22. God’s blessing makes life rich;nothing we do can improve on God.
23. An empty-head thinks mischief is fun,but a mindful person relishes wisdom.
24. The nightmares of the wicked come true;what the good people desire, they get.
