Proverbs 20:18-23

¹⁸When people give you good advice, if you do what they suggest, your plans will succeed; so be sure to get good advice from wise people before you start fighting a war.

¹⁹Those who go around telling gossip are always telling secrets to others; so stay away from people who foolishly talk too much.

²⁰If someone curses his father or his mother, his life will be ended, just like a lamp is extinguished.

²¹If you very quickly take the property that your parents promise will be yours after they die, you will not receive any good/blessing from it.

²²Do not say, “I will do evil to those who do evil to me;” wait for Yahweh to do something about it, and he will ◄help you/ do what is right►.

²³Yahweh detests those who use dishonest scales and weights that are not accurate/correct.
