15 Good sense brings favor,but the way of treacherous people is always the same.
16 Any sensible person acts with knowledge,but a fool displays stupidity.
17 An undependable messenger gets into trouble,but a dependable envoy brings healing.
18 Poverty and shame come to a person who ignores discipline,but whoever pays attention to constructive criticism will be honored.
19 A fulfilled desire is sweet to the soul,but turning from evil is disgusting to fools.
20 Whoever walks with wise people will be wise,but whoever associates with fools will suffer.
21 Disaster hunts down sinners,but righteous people are rewarded with good.
