23. He who rebukes a man will afterward find more favor Than he who flatters with the tongue.
24. He who robs his father or his mother And says, "It is not a transgression," Is the companion of a man who destroys.
25. An arrogant man stirs up strife, But he who trusts in the Lord will prosper.
26. He who trusts in his own heart is a fool, But he who walks wisely will be delivered.
27. He who gives to the poor will never want, But he who shuts his eyes will have many curses.
28. When the wicked rise, men hide themselves; But when they perish, the righteous increase.
