15 ¹The simple believes everything, but the prudent gives thought to his steps.

16 ²One who is wise is cautious^a and ³turns away from evil, but a fool is reckless and careless.

17 A man of ⁴quick temper acts foolishly, and a man of evil devices is hated.

18 The simple inherit folly, but the prudent are crowned with knowledge.

19 ⁵The evil bow down before the good, the wicked at the gates of the righteous.

20 ⁶The poor is disliked even by his neighbor, ⁷but the rich has many friends.

21 Whoever ⁸despises his neighbor is a sinner, but ⁹blessed is he who is generous to the poor.

22 Do they not go astray who ¹⁰devise evil? Those who devise good meet^b¹¹steadfast love and faithfulness.

23 In all toil there is profit, but mere talk ¹²tends only to poverty.

24 The crown of the wise is their wealth, but the folly of fools brings folly.

25 A truthful witness saves lives, but one who ¹³breathes out lies is deceitful.

26 In the fear of the LORD one has ¹⁴strong confidence, and ¹⁵his children will have ¹⁶a refuge.

27 The fear of the LORD is ¹⁷a fountain of life, that one may ¹⁸turn away from the snares of death.

28 In ¹⁹a multitude of people is the glory of a king, but without people a prince is ruined.

29 Whoever is ²⁰slow to anger has great understanding, but he who has a hasty temper exalts folly.

30 A tranquil^c heart gives ²¹life to the flesh, but ²²envy^d makes ²³the bones rot.

31 Whoever oppresses a poor man ²⁴insults his ²⁵Maker, ²⁶but he who is generous to the needy honors him.

32 ²⁷The wicked is overthrown through his evildoing, but ²⁸the righteous finds refuge in his death.

33 Wisdom ²⁹rests in the heart of a man of understanding, but it makes itself known even in the midst of fools.^e

34 Righteousness exalts a nation, but sin is a reproach to any people.

35 A servant who deals wisely has ³⁰the king's favor, but his wrath falls on one who acts shamefully.
