15. To do right-ruling is joy to the righteous, But ruin to the workers of wickedness.
16. A man who strays from the way of understanding, Rests in the assembly of the dead.
17. He who loves pleasure is a poor man; He who loves wine and oil does not become rich.
18. The wrong is a ransom for the righteous, And the treacherous for the straight.
19. It is better to dwell in the wilderness, Than with a contentious and vexed woman.
20. Desirable treasure and oil, Are in the dwelling of the wise, But a foolish man swallows it up.
21. He who pursues righteousness and kindness Finds life, righteousness and esteem.
22. A wise one scales the city of the mighty, And brings down the trusted stronghold.
