19 ¹The evil bow down before the good, the wicked at the gates of the righteous.

20 ²The poor is disliked even by his neighbor, ³but the rich has many friends.

21 Whoever ⁴despises his neighbor is a sinner, but ⁵blessed is he who is generous to the poor.

22 Do they not go astray who ⁶devise evil? Those who devise good meet^a⁷steadfast love and faithfulness.

23 In all toil there is profit, but mere talk ⁸tends 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 ⁹breathes out lies is deceitful.

26 In the fear of the LORD one has ¹⁰strong confidence, and ¹¹his children will have ¹²a refuge.

27 The fear of the LORD is ¹³a fountain of life, that one may ¹⁴turn away from the snares of death.

28 In ¹⁵a multitude of people is the glory of a king, but without people a prince is ruined.

29 Whoever is ¹⁶slow to anger has great understanding, but he who has a hasty temper exalts folly.

30 A tranquil^b heart gives ¹⁷life to the flesh, but ¹⁸envy^c makes ¹⁹the bones rot.

31 Whoever oppresses a poor man ²⁰insults his ²¹Maker, ²²but he who is generous to the needy honors him.

32 ²³The wicked is overthrown through his evildoing, but ²⁴the righteous finds refuge in his death.

33 Wisdom ²⁵rests in the heart of a man of understanding, but it makes itself known even in the midst of fools.^d

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

35 A servant who deals wisely has ²⁶the king's favor, but his wrath falls on one who acts shamefully.
