Proverbs

²⁹He that is slow to anger is of great understanding: but he that is hasty of spirit exalteth folly. ³⁰A sound heart is the life of the flesh: but envy is the rottenness of the bones. ³¹He that oppresseth the poor reproacheth his Maker: but he that hath mercy on the needy honoureth him. ³²The wicked is thrust down in his evil-doing: but the righteous hath hope in his death. ³³Wisdom resteth in the heart of him that hath understanding: but that which is in the inward part of fools is made known. ³⁴Righteousness exalteth a nation: but sin is a reproach to any people. ³⁵The king's favour is toward a servant that dealeth wisely: but his wrath shall be against him that causeth shame.
