In context
18 The wicked worketh a deceitful worke: but hee that soweth righteousnes, shall receiue a sure rewarde.
19 As righteousnes leadeth to life: so hee that followeth euill, seeketh his owne death.
20 They that are of a froward heart, are abomination to the Lord: but they that are vpright in their way, are his delite.
21 Though hande ioyne in hande, the wicked shall not be vnpunished: but the seede of the righteous shall escape.
22 As a iewell of golde in a swines snoute: so is a faire woman, which lacketh discretion.
23 The desire of the righteous is onely good: but the hope of the wicked is indignation.
24 There is that scattereth, and is more increased: but hee that spareth more then is right, surely commeth to pouertie.
