26. Some people are always greedy for more,but the godly love to give!

27. The sacrifice of an evil person is detestable,especially when it is offered with wrong motives.

28. A false witness will be cut off,but a credible witness will be allowed to speak.

29. The wicked bluff their way through,but the virtuous think before they act.

30. No human wisdom or understanding or plancan stand against the lord.

31. The horse is prepared for the day of battle,but the victory belongs to the lord.
