21. Whoso is despising his neighbour sinneth, Whoso is favouring the humble, O his happiness.
22. Do not they err who are devising evil? And kindness and truth [are] to those devising good,
23. In all labour there is advantage, And a thing of the lips [is] only to want.
24. The crown of the wise is their wealth, The folly of fools [is] folly.
25. A true witness is delivering souls, And a deceitful one breatheth out lies.
26. In the fear of Jehovah [is] strong confidence, And to His sons there is a refuge.
27. The fear of Jehovah [is] a fountain of life, To turn aside from snares of death.
28. In the multitude of a people [is] the honour of a king, And in lack of people the ruin of a prince.
29. Whoso is slow to anger [is] of great understanding, And whoso is short in temper is exalting folly.
30. A healed heart [is] life to the flesh, And rottenness to the bones [is] envy.
31. An oppressor of the poor reproacheth his Maker, And whoso is honouring Him Is favouring the needy.
32. In his wickedness is the wicked driven away, And trustful in his death [is] the righteous.
33. In the heart of the intelligent wisdom doth rest. And in the midst of fools it is known.
