9He that walketh uprightly walketh surely: But he that perverteth his ways shall be known.
10He that winketh with the eye causeth sorrow: But a prating fool shall fall.
11The mouth of a righteous man is a well of life: But violence covereth the mouth of the wicked.
12Hatred stirreth up strifes: But love covereth all sins.
13In the lips of him that hath understanding wisdom is found: But a rod is for the back of him that is void of understanding.
14Wise men lay up knowledge: But the mouth of the foolish is near destruction.
15The rich man’s wealth is his strong city: The destruction of the poor is their poverty.
16The labour of the righteous tendeth to life: The fruit of the wicked to sin.
17He is in the way of life that keepeth instruction: But he that refuseth reproof erreth.
18He that hideth hatred with lying lips, And he that uttereth a slander, is a fool.
19In the multitude of words there wanteth not sin: But he that refraineth his lips is wise.
20The tongue of the just is as choice silver: The heart of the wicked is little worth.
21The lips of the righteous feed many: But fools die for want of wisdom.
22The blessing of the Lord, it maketh rich, And he addeth no sorrow with it.
23It is as sport to a fool to do mischief: But a man of understanding hath wisdom.
24The fear of the wicked, it shall come upon him: But the desire of the righteous shall be granted.
25As the whirlwind passeth, so is the wicked no more: But the righteous is an everlasting foundation.
26As vinegar to the teeth, and as smoke to the eyes, So is the sluggard to them that send him.
