20. All wisdom is fear of the Lord;and in all wisdom, the observance of the Law.
22. The knowledge of wickedness is not wisdom,nor is there prudence in the counsel of sinners.
23. There is a shrewdness that is detestable,while the fool may be free from sin.
24. Better are the God-fearing who have little understandingthan those of great intelligence who violate the Law.
25. There is a shrewdness keen but dishonest,and there are those who are duplicitous to win a judgment.
26. There is the villain bowed in grief,but full of deceit within.
27. He hides his face and pretends not to hear,but when not observed, he will take advantage of you:
28. Even if his lack of strength keeps him from sinning,when he finds the right time he will do harm.
29. People are known by their appearance;the sensible are recognized as such when first met.
