14. A gift in secret pacifieth anger; And a present in the bosom, strong wrath.
15. It is joy to the righteous to do justice; But it is a destruction to the workers of iniquity.
16. The man that wandereth out of the way of understanding Shall rest in the assembly of the dead.
17. He that loveth pleasure shall be a poor man: He that loveth wine and oil shall not be rich.
18. The wicked is a ransom for the righteous; And the treacherous cometh in the stead of the upright.
19. It is better to dwell in a desert land, Than with a contentious and fretful woman.
