15. Lions roar and bears charge—and the wicked lord it over the poor.

16. Among leaders who lack insight, abuse abounds,but for one who hates corruption, the future is bright.

17. A murderer haunted by guiltis doomed—there’s no helping him.

18. Walk straight—live well and be saved;a devious life is a doomed life.
