22. A man of displeasure stirs up strife, And a master of rage has many a transgression.
23. The pride of man brings him low, But the humble in spirit obtains esteem.
24. He who shares with a thief hates his own life; He hears an oath, but does not report.
25. The fear of man brings a snare, But whoever trusts in יהוה is set on high.
26. Many seek the face of a ruler, But right-ruling for man comes from יהוה.
27. An unrighteous man Is an abomination to the righteous, And he who is straight in the way Is an abomination to the wrong.
