17 The highway of the upright ¹turns aside from evil; whoever guards his way preserves his life.

18 ²Pride goes before destruction, and a haughty spirit before a fall.

19 ³It is better to be of a lowly spirit with the poor than to ⁴divide the spoil with the proud.

20 Whoever gives thought to the word^a⁵will discover good, and blessed is he ⁶who trusts in the LORD.

21 The wise of heart is called discerning, and sweetness of speech ⁷increases persuasiveness.

22 Good sense is ⁸a fountain of life to him who has it, but the instruction of fools is folly.

23 ⁹The heart of the wise makes his speech judicious and adds persuasiveness to his lips.

24 ¹⁰Gracious words are like ¹¹a honeycomb, sweetness to the soul and ¹²health to the body.

25 There is a way that seems right to a man, but its end is the way to death.^b

26 A worker's appetite works for him; his ¹³mouth urges him on.

27 ¹⁴A worthless man plots evil, and his speech^c is like ¹⁵a scorching fire.
