22. The blessing of יהוה makes one rich, And He adds no pain with it.
23. To work out wicked schemes Is like sport to a fool, But wisdom is for a man of understanding.
24. What the wrong one fears comes upon him, But the desire of the righteous is granted.
25. As the whirlwind passes by, The wrong one is no more, But the righteous has an everlasting foundation.
26. As vinegar to the teeth and smoke to the eyes, So is the lazy one to those who send him.
27. The fear of יהוה prolongs days, But the years of the wrong ones are shortened.
28. The righteous look forward to joy, But the expectancy of the wrong ones perish.
29. The way of יהוה is a stronghold for the perfect, But ruin to the workers of wickedness.
