He who walks in his uprightness fears Yahweh, But he who is perverse in his ways despises him.
3
The fool's talk brings a rod to his back, But the lips of the wise protect them.
4
Where no oxen are, the crib is clean, But much increase is by the strength of the ox.
5
A truthful witness will not lie, But a false witness pours out lies.

A scoffer seeks wisdom, and doesn't find it, But knowledge comes easily to a discerning person.
