22. A fountain of life [is] understanding to its possessors, The instruction of fools is folly.
23. The heart of the wise causeth his mouth to act wisely, And by his lips he increaseth learning,
24. Sayings of pleasantness [are] a honeycomb, Sweet to the soul, and healing to the bone.
25. There is a way right before a man, And its latter end--ways of death.
26. A labouring man hath laboured for himself, For his mouth hath caused [him] to bend over it.
