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.
