He who robs his father or his mother and says, "That is no transgression," is the companion of a man who destroys.
25
A greedy man stirs up strife, but he who trusts in the LORD will be enriched.
26
He who trusts in his own mind is a fool; but he who walks in wisdom will be delivered.
27

When the wicked rise, men hide themselves, but when they perish, the righteous increase.
