24 The crown of the wise is their riches, But the folly of fools crowns them with folly.
25 A truthful witness saves souls, But a false witness is deceitful.
26 In the fear of Yahweh is a secure fortress, And he will be a refuge for his children.
27 The fear of Yahweh is a fountain of life, Turning people from the snares of death.
28 In the multitude of people is the king`s glory, But in the lack of people is the destruction of the prince.
29 He who is slow to anger has great understanding, But he who has a quick temper displays folly.
30 The life of the body is a heart at peace, But envy rots the bones.
