22. Like a gold ring in a pig’s snout,is a beautiful woman who lacks discretion.
23. The desire of the righteous is only good.The expectation of the wicked is wrath.
24. There is one who scatters, and increases yet more.There is one who withholds more than is appropriate, but gains poverty.
25. The liberal soul shall be made fat.He who waters shall be watered also himself.
26. People curse someone who withholds grain,but blessing will be on the head of him who sells it.
27. He who diligently seeks good seeks favor,but he who searches after evil, it shall come to him.
28. He who trusts in his riches will fall,but the righteous shall flourish as the green leaf.
29. He who troubles his own house shall inherit the wind.The foolish shall be servant to the wise of heart.
30. The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life.He who is wise wins souls.
31. Behold, the righteous shall be repaid in the earth;how much more the wicked and the sinner!
