27 The one who profits dishonestly troubles his household,but the one who hates bribes will live.
28 The mind of the righteous person thinks before answering, but the mouth of the wicked blurts out evil things.
29 The Lord is far from the wicked, but He hears the prayer of the righteous.
30 Bright eyes cheer the heart;good news strengthens the bones.
31 One who listens to life-giving rebukes will be at home among the wise.
32 Anyone who ignores discipline despises himself, but whoever listens to correction acquires good sense.
33 The fear of the Lord is what wisdom teaches,and humility comes before honor.
