16. Be not righteous overmuch; neither make thyself overwise: why shouldest thou destroy thyself?
17. Be not overmuch wicked, neither be thou foolish: why shouldest thou die before thy time?
18. It is good that thou shouldest take hold of this; yea, also from that withdraw not thy hand: for he that feareth God cometh forth from them all.
19. Wisdom strengtheneth the wise more than ten mighty men that are in a city.
20. Surely there is not a righteous man upon earth, that doeth good and sinneth not.
