27 Respect for the Lord gives life.It is like a fountain that can save people from death.
28 A king is honored when he has many people to rule,but a prince is ruined if he has none.
29 Patient people have great understanding,but people with quick tempers show their foolishness.
30 Peace of mind means a healthy body,but jealousy will rot your bones.
31 Whoever mistreats the poor insults their Maker,but whoever is kind to the needy honors God.
32 The wicked are ruined by their own evil,but those who do right are protected even in death.
33 Wisdom lives in those with understanding,and even fools recognize it.
