24 Pleasant sayings are a honeycomb, sweetness to the soul and healing to the bones.
25 There is a way that seems upright to a man, but its end is the way of death.
26 The life of a worker works for him, for his hunger urges him.
27 A man of wickedness concocts evil, and his lips are like a scorching fire.
28 A person of perversity will spread dissent, and he who whispers separates a close friend.
29 A person of violence will entice his neighbor and cause him to walk on a way that is not good.
30 He who winks his eyes does so in order to plan perverse things; he who purses his lips will bring evil to pass.
