24 Don’t say, "I have enough.What harm can come upon mefrom now on?"
25 At a time of prosperity,adversity is forgotten,and at a time of adversity,prosperity is not remembered.
26 It is easy for the Lord to pay back peopleaccording to their waysin the hour of death.
27 An hour of miserymakes one forget luxury;the end of a person’s lifereveals his or her deeds.
28 Don’t call anyone happybefore their death;people are knownthrough their children.
29 Don’t bring just anyone into your house,because deceitful peopleset many ambushes.
30 The hearts of arrogant peopleare like decoy birds in a cage;and like spiesthey will observe your downfall.
