22 One who has insight is a fountain of life,but the instruction of the foolish is folly.
23 The mind of the wise makes their speech insightfuland enhances the teaching of their lips.
24 Pleasant words are flowing honey,sweet to the taste and healing to the bones.
25 There is a path that may seem straight to someone,but in the end it is the path of death.
26 The appetite of workers labors for them,for their hunger presses them on.
27 Worthless people dig up trouble;their lips are like a scorching fire.
28 Destructive people produce conflict;gossips alienate close friends.
