14 The king`s wrath is a messenger of death, But a wise man will pacify it.
15 In the light of the king`s face is life. His favor is like a cloud of the spring rain.
16 How much better it is to get wisdom than gold! Yes, to get understanding is to be chosen rather than silver.
17 The highway of the upright is to depart from evil. He who keeps his way preserves his soul.
18 Pride goes before destruction, A haughty spirit before a fall.
19 It is better to be of a lowly spirit with the poor, Than to divide the plunder with the proud.
20 He who gives heed to the word finds prosperity. Whoever trusts in Yahweh is blessed.
