15Slothfulness casts into a deep sleep. The idle soul shall suffer hunger.
16He who keeps the commandment keeps his soul, but he who is contemptuous in his ways shall die.
17He who has pity on the poor lends to the LORD; he will reward him.
18Discipline your son, for there is hope; don’t be a willing party to his death.
19A hot-tempered man must pay the penalty, for if you rescue him, you must do it again.
20Listen to counsel and receive instruction, that you may be wise in your latter end.
21There are many plans in a man’s heart, but the LORD’s counsel will prevail.
22That which makes a man to be desired is his kindness. A poor man is better than a liar.
23The fear of the LORD leads to life, then contentment; he rests and will not be touched by trouble.
