22A wise man scaleth the city of the mighty, and bringeth down the stronghold wherein it trusteth.
23Whoso keepeth his mouth and his tongue keepeth his soul from troubles.
24A proud and haughty man, scorner is his name, even he that dealeth in overbearing pride.
25The desire of the slothful killeth him; for his hands refuse to labour.
26There is that coveteth greedily all the day long; but the righteous giveth and spareth not.
27The sacrifice of the wicked is an abomination; how much more, when he bringeth it with the proceeds of wickedness?
28A false witness shall perish; but the man that obeyeth shall speak unchallenged.
29A wicked man hardeneth his face; but as for the upright, he looketh well to his way.
30There is no wisdom nor understanding nor counsel against the LORD.
