root of the just shall not be moved.

that doth things worthy of confusion, is a rottenness in his bones.
5 The thoughts of the just are judgments: and the

mouth of the just shall deliver them.

evil men: but the root of the just shall prosper.

dissembleth injuries is wise.

18 There is that promiseth, and is pricked as it were
with a sword of conscience: but the tongue of the wise is health.

that is a hasty witness, frameth a lying tongue.
20 Deceit is in the heart of them that think evil things:
but joy followeth them that take counsels of peace.
21 Whatsoever shall befall the just man. it shall not
make him sad: but the wicked shall be filled with mischief.
22 Lying lips are an abomination to the Lord: but they
that deal faithfully please him.
23 A cautious man concealeth knowledge: and the heart
of fools publisheth folly.
24 The hand of the valiant shall bear rule: but that
which is slothful, shall be under tribute.
25 Grief in the heart of a man shall bring him low, but
with a good word he shall be made glad.
26 He that neglecteth a loss for the sake of a friend,
is just: but the way of the wicked shall deceive them.
27 The deceitful man shall not find gain: but the
substance of a just man shall be precious gold.
28 In the path of justice is life: but the by-way
leadeth to death.
