A righteous [man] hateth lying; but the wicked maketh himself odious and cometh to shame.

6.

Righteousness preserveth him that is perfect in the way; but wickedness overthroweth the sinner.

The teaching of the wise [man] is a fountain of life, to turn away from the snares of death.

Every prudent [man] acteth with knowledge; but the foolish layeth open [his] folly.

17.
