[Every] purpose is established by counsel: and with good advice make war (20:18) He that goeth about [as] a talebearer revealeth secrets: therefore meddle not with him that flattereth with his lips (20:19) Whoso curseth his father or his mother, his lamp shall be put out in obscure darkness (20:20) An inheritance [may be] gotten hastily at the beginning; but the end thereof shall not be blessed (20:21) Say not thou, I will recompense evil; [but] wait on the Lord, and he shall save thee (20:22) Divers weights [are] an abomination unto the Lord; and a false balance [is] not good (20:23) Man's goings [are] of the Lord; how can a man then understand his own way? (20:24) [It is] a snare to the man [who] devoureth [that which is] holy, and after vows to make inquiry (20:25) A wise king scattereth the wicked, and bringeth the wheel over them (20:26) The spirit of man [is] the candle of the Lord, searching all the inward parts of the belly (20:27) Mercy and truth preserve the king: and his throne is upholden by mercy (20:28) The glory of young men [is] their strength: and the beauty of old men [is] the grey head (20:29) The blueness of a wound cleanseth away evil: so [do] stripes the inward parts of the belly
