21. While you are still living and breathing, let no one among all flesh change you.
22. For it is better if your children petition you, than if you look toward the hands of your children.
23. In all your works, be pre-eminent.
24. You should not allow a blemish upon your glory. On the day of the consummation of the days of your life, at the time of your passing, distribute your inheritance.
25. Fodder and a rod and a burden are for a donkey; bread and discipline and work are for a servant.
26. He works under discipline, and he seeks rest. Allow his hands to be idle, and he seeks liberty.
27. The yoke and the strap bend a stiff neck, and continual labors bend a servant.
