18 The wicked 'is' an atonement for the righteous, And for the upright the treacherous dealer.
19 Better to dwell in a wilderness land, Than 'with' a woman of contentions and anger.
20 A treasure to be desired, and oil, 'Is' in the habitation of the wise, And a foolish man swalloweth it up.
21 Whoso is pursuing righteousness and kindness, Findeth life, righteousness, and honour.
22 A city of the mighty hath the wise gone up, And bringeth down the strength of its confidence.
