21No wrong can come unawares to the righteous; but the wicked are full of evil.
22An abomination of the Lord are lips of falsehood; but they that deal in faithfulness obtain his favor.
23A prudent man concealeth his knowledge; but the heart of fools proclaimeth their folly.
24The hand of the diligent will bear rule; but the indolent must become tributary.
25If there be care in the heart of man, let him suppress it; and a good word will change it into joy.
26The righteous is more excellent than his neighbor; but the way of the wicked leadeth them astray.
