16Long life is in her right hand, and in her left are wealth and honour.
17Her ways are ways of delight, and all her goings are peace.
18She is a tree of life to all who take her in their hands, and happy is everyone who keeps her.
19The Lord by wisdom put in position the bases of the earth; by reason he put the heavens in their place.
20By his knowledge the deep was parted, and dew came dropping from the skies.
21My son, keep good sense, and do not let wise purpose go from your eyes.
22So they will be life for your soul, and grace for your neck.
23Then you will go safely on your way, and your feet will have no cause for slipping.
24When you take your rest you will have no fear, and on your bed sleep will be sweet to you.
25Have no fear of sudden danger, or of the storm which will come on evil-doers:
26For the Lord will be your hope, and will keep your foot from being taken in the net.
27Do not keep back good from those who have a right to it, when it is in the power of your hand to do it.
28Say not to your neighbour, Go, and come again, and tomorrow I will give; when you have it by you at the time.
29Do not make evil designs against your neighbour, when he is living with you without fear.
30Do not take up a cause at law against a man for nothing, if he has done you no wrong.
31Have no envy of the violent man, or take any of his ways as an example.
32For the wrong-hearted man is hated by the Lord, but he is a friend to the upright.
