20:024:017 Rejoice not when thine enemy falleth, and let not thine heart
           be glad when he stumbleth: 

20:024:018 Lest the lord see it, and it displease him, and he turn away
           his wrath from him.

20:024:019 Fret not thyself because of evil men, neither be thou envious
           at the wicked: 

20:024:020 For there shall be no reward to the evil man; the candle of
           the wicked shall be put out.

20:024:021 My son, fear thou the lord and the king:  and meddle not with
           them that are given to change: 

20:024:022 For their calamity shall rise suddenly; and who knoweth the
           ruin of them both?

20:024:023 These things also belong to the wise.  It is not good to have
           respect of persons in judgment.

20:024:024 He that saith unto the wicked, Thou are righteous; him shall
           the people curse, nations shall abhor him: 

20:024:025 But to them that rebuke him shall be delight, and a good
           blessing shall come upon them.

20:024:026 Every man shall kiss his lips that giveth a right answer.

20:024:027 Prepare thy work without, and make it fit for thyself in the
           field; and afterwards build thine house.

20:024:028 Be not a witness against thy neighbour without cause; and
           deceive not with thy lips.

20:024:029 Say not, I will do so to him as he hath done to me:  I will
           render to the man according to his work.

20:024:030 I went by the field of the slothful, and by the vineyard of
           the man void of understanding;

20:024:031 And, lo, it was all grown over with thorns, and nettles had
           covered the face thereof, and the stone wall thereof was
           broken down.

20:024:032 Then I saw, and considered it well:  I looked upon it, and
           received instruction.

20:024:033 Yet a little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the
           hands to sleep: 

20:024:034 So shall thy poverty come as one that travelleth; and thy want
           as an armed man.

20:025:001 These are also proverbs of Solomon, which the men of Hezekiah
           king of Judah copied out.

20:025:002 It is the glory of God to conceal a thing:  but the honour of
           kings is to search out a matter.

20:025:003 The heaven for height, and the earth for depth, and the heart
           of kings is unsearchable.

20:025:004 Take away the dross from the silver, and there shall come
           forth a vessel for the finer.

20:025:005 Take away the wicked from before the king, and his throne
           shall be established in righteousness.

20:025:006 Put not forth thyself in the presence of the king, and stand
           not in the place of great men:
