21. Folly is a joy to him who lacks sense, and a person of understanding will walk upright.

22. Plans go wrong when there is no counsel, but with many advisors it will succeed.

23. Joy belongs to a man with answers in his mouth, and a word in its time, how good it is!

24. The path of life leads upward for him who has insight, in order to turn away from Sheol below.

25. The house of the proud, Yahweh will tear it down, but he will maintain the property line of the widow.

26. Plans of evil are an abomination of Yahweh, but gracious words are pure.
