18. The wicked is a ransom for the righteous; and the treacherous cometh in the stead of the upright.
19. It is better to dwell in a desert land, than with a contentious and fretful woman.
20. There is precious treasure and oil in the dwelling of the wise; but a foolish man swalloweth it up.
21. He that followeth after righteousness and mercy findeth life, righteousness, and honour.
