14. The fury of a king is like messengers of death, But a wise man will appease it.
15. In the light of a king's face is life, And his favor is like a cloud with the spring rain.
16. How much better it is to get wisdom than gold! And to get understanding is to be chosen above silver.
17. The highway of the upright is to depart from evil; He who watches his way preserves his life.
18. Pride goes before destruction, And a haughty spirit before stumbling.
19. It is better to be humble in spirit with the lowly Than to divide the spoil with the proud.
20. He who gives attention to the word will find good, And blessed is he who trusts in the Lord.
21. The wise in heart will be called understanding, And sweetness of speech increases persuasiveness.
22. Understanding is a fountain of life to one who has it, But the discipline of fools is folly.
