22. An angry man stirs up strife,And a furious man abounds in transgression.
23. A man’s pride will bring him low,But the humble in spirit will retain honor.
24. Whoever is a partner with a thief hates his own life;He swears to tell the truth, but reveals nothing.
25. The fear of man brings a snare,But whoever trusts in the Lord shall be safe.
26. Many seek the ruler’s favor,But justice for man comes from the Lord.
27. An unjust man is an abomination to the righteous,And he who is upright in the way is an abomination to the wicked.
