18. Be careful! Don’t be led away from God by riches.Don’t let a promise of much money turn you away.
19. Neither your wealth nor all your great strengthwill keep you out of trouble.
20. Don’t wish for the night.That is when people are taken from their homes.
21. Be careful not to turn to evil,which you seem to want more than suffering.
22. “God does great things by his power.No other teacher is like him.
23. No one has planned his ways for him.No one has said to God, ‘You have done wrong.’
