16 Don’t count yourselfamong a group of sinners;remember that God’s anger won’t delay.
17 Humble your whole beingas much as possible,because fire and wormsare the punishment of the ungodly.
18 Don’t trade a friend for cashor a genuine friend for the gold of Ophir.
19 Don’t neglect a wise and good wife,for her grace is worth more than gold.
