Proverbs 12:24-28 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

24. The hand of the strong will rule. But anyone who is neglectful will pay tribute.

25. Grief in the heart of a man humbles him. And with a good word he shall be made glad.

26. He who ignores a loss for the sake of a friend is just. But the way of the impious will deceive them.

27. The dishonest will not discover gain. But the substance of a man will be like precious gold.

28. In the path of justice, there is life. But the devious way leads to death.
