26. And the suspicion of them hath deceived many, and hath detained their minds in vanity.
27. A hard heart shall fear evil at the last: and he that loveth danger shall perish in it.
28. A heart that goeth two ways shall not have success, and the perverse of heart shall be scandalized therein.
29. A wicked heart shall be laden with sorrows, and the sinner will add sin to sin.
30. The congregation of the proud shall not be healed: for the plant of wickedness shall take root in them, and it shall not be perceived.
31. The heart of the wise is understood in wisdom, and a good ear will hear wisdom with all desire.
32. A wise heart, and which hath understanding, will abstain from sine, and in the works of justice shall have success.
33. Water quencheth a flaming fire, and alms resisteth sins:
34. And God provideth for him that sheweth favour: he remembereth him afterwards, and in the time of his fall he shall find a sure stay.
