25. There is a way which seemeth right unto a man, But the end thereof are the ways of death.
26. The appetite of the laboring man laboreth for him; For his mouth urgeth him thereto.
27. A worthless man deviseth mischief; And in his lips there is as a scorching fire.
28. A perverse man scattereth abroad strife; And a whisperer separateth chief friends.
29. A man of violence enticeth his neighbor, And leadeth him in a way that is not good.
30. He that shutteth his eyes, it is to devise perverse things: He that compresseth his lips bringeth evil to pass.
31. The hoary head is a crown of glory; It shall be found in the way of righteousness.
