20:020:015 There is gold, and a multitude of rubies: but the lips of knowledge are a precious jewel. 20:020:016 Take his garment that is surety for a stranger: and take a pledge of him for a strange woman. 20:020:017 Bread of deceit is sweet to a man; but afterwards his mouth shall be filled with gravel. 20:020:018 Every purpose is established by counsel: and with good advice make war. 20:020:019 He that goeth about as a talebearer revealeth secrets: therefore meddle not with him that flattereth with his lips. 20:020:020 Whoso curseth his father or his mother, his lamp shall be put out in obscure darkness. 20:020:021 An inheritance may be gotten hastily at the beginning; but the end thereof shall not be blessed. 20:020:022 Say not thou, I will recompense evil; but wait on the LORD, and he shall save thee. 20:020:023 Divers weights are an abomination unto the LORD; and a false balance is not good. 20:020:024 Man's goings are of the LORD; how can a man then understand his own way? 20:020:025 It is a snare to the man who devoureth that which is holy, and after vows to make enquiry. 20:020:026 A wise king scattereth the wicked, and bringeth the wheel over them. 20:020:027 The spirit of man is the candle of the LORD, searching all the inward parts of the belly. 20:020:028 Mercy and truth preserve the king: and his throne is upholden by mercy. 20:020:029 The glory of young men is their strength: and the beauty of old men is the grey head. 20:020:030 The blueness of a wound cleanseth away evil: so do stripes the inward parts of the belly. 20:021:001 The king's heart is in the hand of the LORD, as the rivers of water: he turneth it whithersoever he will. 20:021:002 Every way of a man is right in his own eyes: but the LORD pondereth the hearts. 20:021:003 To do justice and judgment is more acceptable to the LORD than sacrifice. 20:021:004 An high look, and a proud heart, and the plowing of the wicked, is sin. 20:021:005 The thoughts of the diligent tend only to plenteousness; but of every one that is hasty only to want. 20:021:006 The getting of treasures by a lying tongue is a vanity tossed to and fro of them that seek death. 20:021:007 The robbery of the wicked shall destroy them; because they refuse to do judgment. 20:021:008 The way of man is froward and strange: but as for the pure, his work is right. 20:021:009 It is better to dwell in a corner of the housetop, than with a brawling woman in a wide house. 20:021:010 The soul of the wicked desireth evil: his neighbour findeth no favour in his eyes. 20:021:011 When the scorner is punished, the simple is made wise: and when the wise is instructed, he receiveth knowledge.
