19 The path of the lazy is like a hedge of thorns,but the way of those who do right is a clear road.
20 A wise child brings joy to a father,but fools despise their mothers.
21 Folly is joy to those who lack sense,but those with understanding walk straight ahead.
22 Plans fail with no counsel,but with many counselors they succeed.
23 To give an appropriate answer is a joy;how good is a word at the right time!
24 For those with insight, life is an upward path,avoiding the grave below.
25 The Lord snatches away the arrogant one’s house,but he preserves the widow’s boundaries.
