9 ¹Fools mock at the guilt offering, but the upright enjoy acceptance.^a

10 The heart knows its own ²bitterness, and no stranger shares its joy.

11 ³The house of the wicked will be destroyed, but the tent of the upright will flourish.

12 ⁴There is a way that seems right to a man, but ⁵its end is the way to death.^b

13 Even in laughter the heart may ache, and ⁶the end of joy may be ⁷grief.

14 The backslider in heart will be ⁸filled with the fruit of his ways, and ⁹a good man will be filled with the fruit of his ways.

15 ¹⁰The simple believes everything, but the prudent gives thought to his steps.

16 ¹¹One who is wise is cautious^c and ¹²turns away from evil, but a fool is reckless and careless.

17 A man of ¹³quick temper acts foolishly, and a man of evil devices is hated.

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

19 ¹⁴The evil bow down before the good, the wicked at the gates of the righteous.

20 ¹⁵The poor is disliked even by his neighbor, ¹⁶but the rich has many friends.

21 Whoever ¹⁷despises his neighbor is a sinner, but ¹⁸blessed is he who is generous to the poor.

22 Do they not go astray who ¹⁹devise evil? Those who devise good meet^d²⁰steadfast love and faithfulness.

23 In all toil there is profit, but mere talk ²¹tends 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 ²²breathes out lies is deceitful.

26 In the fear of the LORD one has ²³strong confidence, and ²⁴his children will have ²⁵a refuge.

27 The fear of the LORD is ²⁶a fountain of life, that one may ²⁷turn away from the snares of death.

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

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

30 A tranquil^e heart gives ³⁰life to the flesh, but ³¹envy^f makes ³²the bones rot.

31 Whoever oppresses a poor man ³³insults his ³⁴Maker, ³⁵but he who is generous to the needy honors him.

32 ³⁶The wicked is overthrown through his evildoing, but ³⁷the righteous finds refuge in his death.

33 Wisdom ³⁸rests in the heart of a man of understanding, but it makes itself known even in the midst of fools.^g

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

35 A servant who deals wisely has ³⁹the king's favor, but his wrath falls on one who acts shamefully.
