17He that loveth good cheer, shall be in want: he that loveth wine, and fat things, shall not be rich.
18The wicked is delivered up for the just: and the unjust for the righteous.
19It is better to dwell in a wilderness, than with a quarrelsome and passionate woman.
20There is a treasure to be desired, and oil in the dwelling of the just: and the foolish man shall spend it.
21He that followeth justice and mercy, shall find life, justice, and glory.
22The wise man hath scaled the city of the strong, and hath cast down the strength of the confidence thereof.
23He that keepeth his mouth and his tongue, keepeth his soul from distress.
24The proud and the arrogant is called ignorant, who in anger worketh pride.
25Desires kill the slothful: for his hands have refused to work at all.
26He longeth and desireth all the day: but he that is just, will give, and will not cease.
27The sacrifices of the wicked are abominable, because they are offered of wickedness.
28A lying witness shall perish: an obedient man shall speak of victory.
29The wicked man impudently hardeneth his face: but he that is righteous, correcteth his way.
30There is no wisdom, there is no prudence, there is no counsel against the Lord.
