20Listen to counsel and receive instruction, That thou mayst be wise in thy latter years.
21Many are the devices in the heart of a man; But the purpose of the LORD, that shall stand.
22The charm of a man is his kindness; And better is a poor man than a liar.
23The fear of the LORD tendeth to life, And he that hath it shall abide satisfied; He shall not be visited with evil.
24The slothful man dippeth his hand into the dish: He doth not bring it back even to his mouth.
25Strike the scoffer, and the simple will become prudent; Reprove a man of understanding, and he will discern knowledge.
26The son that causeth shame and disgrace doeth violence to his father, And chaseth away his mother.
27Cease, my son, to listen to the instruction That causeth thee to wander from the words of knowledge!
28A worthless witness scoffeth at justice, And the mouth of the wicked swalloweth down iniquity.
29Punishments are prepared for scoffers, And stripes for the back of fools.
