14A gift in secret pacifieth anger, and a present in the bosom strong wrath.
15It is joy to the righteous to do judgment; but it is a destruction to the workers of iniquity.
16The man that wandereth out of the way of understanding shall rest in the congregation of the dead.
17He that loveth pleasure shall be a poor man: he that loveth wine and oil shall not be rich.
18The wicked is a ransom for the righteous; and the treacherous cometh in the stead of the upright.
19It is better to dwell in a desert land, than with a contentious and fretful woman.
20There is precious treasure and oil in the dwelling of the wise; but a foolish man swalloweth it up.
21He that followeth after righteousness and mercy findeth life, righteousness, and honour.
22A wise man scaleth the city of the mighty, and bringeth down the strength of the confidence thereof.
23Whoso keepeth his mouth and his tongue keepeth his soul from troubles.
24The proud and haughty man, scorner is his name, he worketh in the arrogance of pride.
25The desire of the slothful killeth him; for his hands refuse to labour.
