18. For it is a pleasant thing if thou keep them within thee: they shall be together fitted on thy lips.
19. That thy confidence may be in Jehovah, I have made them known to thee this day, even to thee.
20. Have not I written to thee excellent things, in counsels and knowledge,
21. that I might make thee know the certainty of the words of truth; that thou mightest carry back words of truth to them that send thee?
22. Rob not the poor, because he is poor, neither oppress the afflicted in the gate;
23. for Jehovah will plead their cause, and despoil the soul of those that despoil them.
24. Make no friendship with an angry man, and go not with a furious man;
25. lest thou learn his paths, and get a snare to thy soul.
