18 A well-advised personwon’t overlook an intelligent thought;the stranger and the arrogantwon’t cower out of fear.
19 Do nothing without deliberation,and when you have acted,don’t feel regret.
20 Don’t walk on a hazardous path,and don’t stumble on stony ground.
21 Don’t trust an unexplored road,
22 and be on guardconcerning your children.
23 Trust yourself in every action,because this also meanskeeping the commandments.
24 Whoever has faith in the Lawpays attention to the commandments;whoever trusts the Lordwon’t suffer loss.
