20:27 The breath of man [is] a lamp of Jehovah, Searching all the inner parts of the heart.

20:28 Kindness and truth keep a king, And he hath supported by kindness his throne.

20:29 The beauty of young men is their strength, And the honour of old men is grey hairs.

20:30 The bandages of a wound thou removest with the evil, Also the plagues of the inner parts of the heart!

21:1 Rivulets of waters [is] the heart of a king in the hand of Jehovah, Wherever He pleaseth He inclineth it.

21:2 Every way of a man [is] right in his own eyes, And Jehovah is pondering hearts.

21:3 To do righteousness and judgment, Is chosen of Jehovah rather than sacrifice.

21:4 Loftiness of eyes, and breadth of heart, Tillage of the wicked [is] sin.

21:5 The purposes of the diligent [are] only to advantage, And of every hasty one, only to want.

21:6 The making of treasures by a lying tongue, [Is] a vanity driven away of those seeking death.

21:7 The spoil of the wicked catcheth them, Because they have refused to do judgment.

21:8 Froward [is] the way of a man who is vile, And the pure -- upright [is] his work.

21:9 Better to sit on a corner of the roof, Than [with] a woman of contentions and a house of company.

21:10 The soul of the wicked hath desired evil, Not gracious in his eyes is his neighbour.

21:11 When the scorner is punished, the simple becometh wise, And in giving understanding to the wise He receiveth knowledge.

21:12 The Righteous One is acting wisely Towards the house of the wicked, He is overthrowing the wicked for wickedness.

21:13 Whoso is shutting his ear from the cry of the poor, He also doth cry, and is not answered.

21:14 A gift in secret pacifieth anger, And a bribe in the bosom strong fury.

21:15 To do justice [is] joy to the righteous, But ruin to workers of iniquity.

21:16 A man who is wandering from the way of understanding, In an assembly of Rephaim resteth.

21:17 Whoso [is] loving mirth [is] a poor man, Whoso is loving wine and oil maketh no wealth.

21:18 The wicked [is] an atonement for the righteous, And for the upright the treacherous dealer.

30:24 Four [are] little ones of earth , And they are made wiser than the wise: 30:25 The ants [are] a people not strong , And they prepare in summer their food, 30:26 Conies [are] a people not strong , And they place in a rock their house, 30:27 A king there is not to the locust , And it goeth out -- each one shouting, 30:28 A spider with two hands taketh hold, And is in the palaces of a king. 30:29 Three there are going well , Yea, four are good in going: 30:30 An old lion -- mighty among beasts , That turneth not back from the face of any, 30:31 A girt one of the loins , or a he-goat, And a king -- no rising up with him. 30:32 If thou hast been foolish in lifting up thyself, And if thou hast devised evil -- hand to mouth! 30:33 For the churning of milk bringeth out butter , And the wringing of the nose bringeth out blood , And the forcing of anger bringeth out strife! 31:1 Words of Lemuel a king , a declaration that his mother
