20 The tongue of the righteous is as choice silver: the heart of the wicked is little worth.
21 The lips of the righteous feed many: but the foolish die for lack of understanding.
22 The blessing of the Lord, it maketh rich, and he addeth no sorrow therewith.
23 It is as sport to a fool to do wickedness: and so is wisdom to a man of understanding.
24 The fear of the wicked, it shall come upon him: and the desire of the righteous shall be granted.
25 When the whirlwind passeth, the wicked is no more: but the righteous is an everlasting foundation.
26 As vinegar to the teeth, and as smoke to the eyes, so is the sluggard to them that send him.
