23 The shrewd conceal their knowledge,but the heart of fools proclaims their stupidity.
24 A hard worker is in charge,while a lazy one will be sentenced to hard labor.
25 Anxiety leads to depression,but a good word encourages.
26 The righteous offer guidance to their neighbors,but the path of the wicked makes them wander.
27 The lazy don’t roast their prey,but hard workers receive precious riches.
28 The way of the righteous leads to life,but the detestable path leads to death.
