These are the proverbs of Solomon: A wise son makes his father happy; a foolish one makes his mother sad.
2
Wealth gained by doing wrong will not really help you, but doing right will save you from death.

24
The wicked will be defeated by what they fear, but good people will get what they want.
25
The wicked are destroyed when trouble comes, but good people stand strong forever.
26
Sending a lazy to person to do anything is as irritating as vinegar on your teeth or smoke in your eyes.
27
Respect for the Lord will add years to your life, but the wicked will have their lives cut short.
28
What good people hope for brings happiness, but what the wicked hope for brings destruction.
