Proverbi 29:22-27

22 L’uomo iracondo fa nascere contese, e l’uomo collerico abbonda in trasgressioni.

23 L’orgoglio abbassa l’uomo, ma chi è umile di spirito ottiene gloria.

24 Chi fa società col ladro odia l’anima sua; egli ode la esecrazione e non dice nulla.

25 La paura degli uomini costituisce un laccio, ma chi confida nell’Eterno è al sicuro.

26 Molti cercano il favore del principe, ma l’Eterno fa giustizia ad ognuno.

27 L’uomo iniquo è un abominio per i giusti, e colui che cammina rettamente è un abominio per gli empi.
