5 Everyone who is proud in heart is an abomination to Yahweh: they shall certainly not be unpunished.
12 It is an abomination for kings to do wrong, for the throne is established by righteousness.
16 How much better it is to get wisdom than gold! Yes, to get understanding is to be chosen rather than silver.
17 The highway of the upright is to depart from evil. He who keeps his way preserves his soul.
19 It is better to be of a lowly spirit with the poor, than to divide the plunder with the proud.
22 Understanding is a fountain of life to one who has it, but the punishment of fools is their folly.
32 One who is slow to anger is better than the mighty; one who rules his spirit, than he who takes a city.
