20. There is more hope for a foolthan for someone who speaks without thinking.

21. A servant pampered from childhoodwill become a rebel.

22. An angry person starts fights;a hot-tempered person commits all kinds of sin.

23. Pride ends in humiliation,while humility brings honor.

24. If you assist a thief, you only hurt yourself.You are sworn to tell the truth, but you dare not testify.

25. Fearing people is a dangerous trap,but trusting the lord means safety.

26. Many seek the ruler’s favor,but justice comes from the lord.

27. The righteous despise the unjust;the wicked despise the godly.
