21 Whoever shows favoritism in judgment does not do well; even if it is for a morsel of bread, he forsakes the truth.
22 A man who hurries to become rich, and who envies others, does not know that destitution will overwhelm him.
23 Whoever corrects a man, afterward he shall find favor with him, more so than he who deceives him with a flattering tongue.
24 Whoever takes away anything from his father or mother, and who says, "This is not a sin," is the associate of a murderer.
25 Whoever boasts and enlarges himself stirs up conflicts. Yet truly, whoever trusts in the Lord will be healed.
26 Whoever trusts in his own heart is a fool. But whoever treads wisely, the same shall be saved.
27 Whoever gives to the poor shall not be in need. Whoever despises his petition will suffer scarcity.
