19 As righteousness is unto life, so he that pursues evil pursues it unto his own death.
20 They that are of a perverse heart are an abomination to the Lord, but such as are perfect in their way are his delight.
21 No matter how many covenants he has made with death, the wicked shall not be absolved, but the seed of the righteous shall escape.
22 As a gold ring in a swine’s snout, so is a fair woman which is without discretion.
23 The desire of the righteous is only good, but the hope of the wicked is wrath.
24 There are those who scatter, and more is added unto them; and there are those who withhold more than is just, but come to poverty.
25 The soul who is a blessing unto others shall be made fat, and he that fills shall be filled also himself.
