24. Whosoever is partner with a thief hates his own soul: he hears cursing, and reveals it not.
25. The fear of man brings a snare: but whosoever puts his trust in the LORD shall be safe.
26. Many seek the ruler's favor; but every man's judgment comes from the LORD.
27. An unjust man is an abomination to the just: and he that is upright in the way is abomination to the wicked.
