20 A man’s womb shall be ful filled of the fruit of his mouth (or A man’s belly shall be fulfilled,or satisfied, by the fruit of his mouth); and the seeds of his lips shall fill him.
21 Death and life be in the works of the tongue; they that love it, shall eat the fruits thereof, (or they who nurture it, shall eat its fruits).
22 He that findeth a good woman, findeth a good thing; and of the Lord he shall draw up mirth (or and he receiveth favour from the Lord). He that putteth away a good woman, putteth away a good thing; but he that holdeth (onto an) adulteress, is a fool and unwise.
23 A poor man shall speak with beseechings, (or with pleadings); and a rich man shall speak sternly.
