10When it goeth well with the righteous, the city rejoiceth; And when the wicked perish, there is shouting.
11By the blessing of the upright the city is exalted; But it is overthrown by the mouth of the wicked.
12He that despiseth his neighbor is void of wisdom; But a man of understanding holdeth his peace.
13He that goeth about as a tale-bearer revealeth secrets; But he that is of a faithful spirit concealeth a matter.
14Where no wise guidance is, the people falleth; But in the multitude of counsellors there is safety.
15He that is surety for a stranger shall smart for it; But he that hateth suretyship is secure.
16A gracious woman obtaineth honor; And violent men obtain riches.
17The merciful man doeth good to his own soul; But he that is cruel troubleth his own flesh.
18The wicked earneth deceitful wages; But he that soweth righteousness hath a sure reward.
19He that is stedfast in righteousness shall attain unto life; And he that pursueth evil doeth it to his own death.
20They that are perverse in heart are an abomination to Jehovah; But such as are perfect in their way are his delight.
21Though hand join in hand, the evil man shall not be unpunished; But the seed of the righteous shall be delivered.
22As a ring of gold in a swine’s snout, So is a fair woman that is without discretion.
23The desire of the righteous is only good; But the expectation of the wicked is wrath.
24There is that scattereth, and increaseth yet more; And there is that withholdeth more than is meet, but it tendeth only to want.
25The liberal soul shall be made fat; And he that watereth shall be watered also himself.
