19The desires of the godly gladden the soul, But the works of the ungodly are far from knowledge.
20If thou walkest with wise men thou shalt be wise: But he that walks with fools shall be known.
21Evil shall pursue sinners; But good shall overtake the righteous.
22A good man shall inherit children’s children; And the wealth of ungodly men is laid up for the just.
23The righteous shall spend many years in wealth: But the unrighteous shall perish suddenly.
24He that spares the rod hates his son: But he that loves, carefully chastens him.
25A just man eats and satisfies his soul: But the souls of the ungodly are in want.
