25 The Lord will destroy the house of the proud, but he will establish the inheritance of the widow.
26 The thoughts of the wicked are an abomination to the Lord, but the speech of the pure is pure.
27 He that is greedy of gain troubles his own house, but he that hates gifts shall live.
28 The heart of the righteous studies to answer, but the mouth of the wicked pours out evil things.
29 The Lord is far from the wicked, but he hears the prayer of the righteous.
30 The light of the eyes rejoices the heart, and a good report makes the bones fat.
31 The ear that hears the reproof of life shall abide among the wise.
