Proverbs

¹⁹The desire accomplished is sweet to the soul: but it is an abomination to fools to depart from evil. ²⁰Walk with wise men, and thou shalt be wise: but the companion of fools shall smart for it. ²¹Evil pursueth sinners: but the righteous shall be recompensed with good. ²²A good man leaveth an inheritance to his children's children; and the wealth of the sinner is laid up for the righteous. ²³Much food is in the tillage of the poor: but there is that is destroyed by reason of injustice. ²⁴He that spareth his rod hateth his son: but he that loveth him chasteneth him betimes. ²⁵The righteous eateth to the satisfying of his soul: but the belly of the wicked shall want.
