15
Good instruction shall give grace: in the way of scorners is a deep pit.
16
The prudent man doth all things with counsel: but he that is a fool, layeth open his folly.
17
The messenger of the wicked shall fall into mischief: but a faithful ambassador is health.
18
Poverty and shame to him that refuseth instruction: but he that yieldeth to reproof shall be glorified.
19
The desire that is accomplished, delighteth the soul: fools hate them that flee from evil things.
20
He that walketh with the wise, shall be wise: a friend of fools shall become like to them.
21
Evil pursueth sinners: and to the just good shall be repaid.
22
The good man leaveth heirs, sons, and grandsons: and the substance of the sinner is kept for the just.
23
Much food is in the tillage of fathers: but for others it is gathered without judgment.
24
He that spareth the rod, hateth his son: but he that loveth him, correcteth him betimes.
25
The just eateth and filleth his soul: but the belly of the wicked is never to be filled.
