10:22 The blessing of Yahweh brings wealth, And he adds no trouble to it.

10:23 It is a fool`s pleasure to do wickedness, But wisdom is a man of understanding`s pleasure.

10:24 What the wicked fear, will overtake them, But the desire of the righteous will be granted.

10:25 When the whirlwind passes, the wicked is no more; But the righteous is an everlasting foundation.

10:26 As vinegar to the teeth, and as smoke to the eyes, So is the sluggard to those who send him.

10:28 The prospect of the righteous is joy, But the hope of the wicked will perish.
