21No mischief shall happen to the righteous, but the wicked shall be filled with evil.
22Lying lips are an abomination to the LORD, but those who do the truth are his delight.
23A prudent man keeps his knowledge, but the hearts of fools proclaim foolishness.
24The hands of the diligent ones shall rule, but laziness ends in slave labour.
25Anxiety in a man’s heart weighs it down, but a kind word makes it glad.
26A righteous person is cautious in friendship, but the way of the wicked leads them astray.
