19. As righteousness leads to life: so he that pursues evil pursues it to his own death.
20. They that are of a perverse heart are abomination to the LORD: but such as are upright in their way are his delight.
21. Though they join hand to hand, the wicked shall not be unpunished: but the descendants of the righteous shall be delivered.
22. As a jewel of gold in a swine's snout, so is a beautiful woman who is without discretion.
23. The desire of the righteous is only good: but the expectation of the wicked is wrath.
24. There is one that scatters, and yet increases; and there is one that withholds more than is right, but it leads to poverty.
25. The liberal soul shall be made rich: and he that waters shall be watered also himself.
26. He that withholds grain, the people shall curse him: but blessing shall be upon the head of him that sells it.
27. He that diligently seeks good procures favor: but he that seeks evil, it shall come unto him.
28. He that trusts in his riches shall fall: but the righteous shall flourish as a branch.
29. He that troubles his own house shall inherit the wind: and the fool shall be servant to the wise of heart.
30. The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life; and he that wins souls is wise.
31. Behold, the righteous shall be recompensed on the earth: much more the wicked and the sinner.
