19 Don’t get fighting mad at evil people;don’t be envious of the wicked.
20 Indeed, there is no future for the evil;the lamp of the wicked will be put out.
21 Fear the Lord, my child, as well as the king.Don’t associate with those who are rebellious.
22 Disaster comes suddenly from them.Who can know the ruin that both can bring?
23 These are also the sayings of the wise:Partiality in judgment isn’t good.
24 Those who say to the guilty, "You are innocent"—the people will curse them.Nations will condemn them.
25 But it will go well for those who rebuke them.A rich blessing will come to them.
