16 A wise man fears and shuns evil,but the fool is hot headed and reckless.
17 He who is quick to become angry will commit folly,and a crafty man is hated.
18 The simple inherit folly,but the prudent are crowned with knowledge.
19 The evil bow down before the good,and the wicked at the gates of the righteous.
20 The poor person is shunned even by his own neighbour,but the rich person has many friends.
21 He who despises his neighbour sins,but he is blessed who has pity on the poor.
22 Don’t they go astray who plot evil?But love and faithfulness belong to those who plan good.
