27. He that is greedy of gain troubleth his own house: but he that hateth gifts shall live.
28. The heart of the righteous studieth to answer: but the mouth of the wicked poureth out evil things.
29. The Lord is far from the wicked: but he heareth the prayer of the righteous.
30. The light of the eyes rejoiceth the heart: and good tidings make the bones fat.
31. The ear that hearkeneth to the reproof of life shall abide among the wise.
