19 The evil bow before the good; and the wicked at the gates of the righteous.
20 The poor is hated even of his own neighbor: but the rich has many friends.
21 He that despises his neighbor sins: but he that has mercy on the poor, happy is he.
22 Do they not err that devise evil? but mercy and truth shall be to them that devise good.
23 In all labor there is profit: but the talk of the lips leads only to poverty.
24 The crown of the wise is their riches: but the foolishness of fools is folly.
25 A true witness delivers souls: but a deceitful witness speaks lies.
