26. As vinegar to the teeth, and as smoke to the eyes, so is the sluggard to them that send him.
27. The fear of the LORD prolongeth days: but the years of the wicked shall be shortened.
28. The hope of the righteous shall be gladness: but the expectation of the wicked shall perish.
29. The way of the LORD is a strong hold to the upright; but it is a destruction to the workers of iniquity.
30. The righteous shall never be removed: but the wicked shall not dwell in the land.
31. The mouth of the righteous bringeth forth wisdom: but the froward tongue shall be cut off.
32. The lips of the righteous know what is acceptable: but the mouth of the wicked speaketh frowardness.
