14 Without guidance, people fall,but with many counselors there is deliverance.
15 If someone puts up security for a stranger,he will suffer for it, but the one who hates such agreements is protected.
16 A gracious woman gains honor,but violent men gain only riches.
17 A kind man benefits himself, but a cruel man brings disaster on himself.
18 The wicked man earns an empty wage,but the one who sows righteousness, a true reward.
19 Genuine righteousness leads to life, but pursuing evil leads to death.
20 Those with twisted minds are detestable to the Lord,but those with blameless conduct are His delight.
