23. An abomination to Jehovah [are] a stone and a stone, And balances of deceit [are] not good.
24. From Jehovah [are] the steps of a man, And man--how understandeth he his way?
25. A snare to a man [is] he hath swallowed a holy thing, And after vows to make inquiry.
26. A wise king is scattering the wicked, And turneth back on them the wheel.
27. The breath of man [is] a lamp of Jehovah, Searching all the inner parts of the heart.
28. Kindness and truth keep a king, And he hath supported by kindness his throne.
29. The beauty of young men is their strength, And the honour of old men is grey hairs.
30. The bandages of a wound thou removest with the evil, Also the plagues of the inner parts of the heart!
