28 In a multitude of people, there is dignity for the king. And in a paucity of people, there is disgrace for the prince.
29 Whoever is patient is governed by much prudence. But whoever is impatient exalts his foolishness.
30 The well-being of the heart is life for the flesh. But envy is decay for the bones.
31 Whoever slanders the indigent argues against his Maker. But he who has compassion on the poor honors his Maker.
32 The impious will be expelled in his malice. But the just finds hope even in his own death.
33 In the heart of the prudent, wisdom finds rest. And so shall he instruct all the uneducated.
34 Justice elevates a nation. But sin makes the peoples miserable.
