20. A perverse heart is abominable to the Lord: and his will is in them that walk sincerely.
21. Hand in hand the evil man shall not be innocent: but the seed of the just shall be saved.
22. A golden ring in a swine's snout, a woman fair and foolish.
23. The desire of the just is all good: the expectation of the wicked is indignation.
24. Some distribute their own goods, and grow richer: others take away what is not their own, and are always in want.
25. The soul which blesseth, shall be made fat: and he that inebriateth, shall be inebriated also himself.
26. He that hideth up corn, shall be cursed among the people: but a blessing upon the head of them that sell.
27. Well doth he rise early who seeketh good things; but he that seeketh after evil things shall be oppressed by them.
28. He that trusteth in his riches shall fall: but the just shall spring up as a green leaf.
29. He that troubleth his own house, shall inherit the winds: and the fool shall serve the wise.
30. The fruit of the just man is a tree of life: and he that gaineth souls, is wise.
31. If the just man receive in the earth, how much more the wicked and the sinner.
