22 A short-tempered man provokes quarrels. And whoever is easily angered is more likely to sin

23 Humiliation follows the arrogant. And glory shall uphold the humble in spirit

24 Whoever participates with a thief hates his own soul; for he listens to his oath and does not denounce him

25 Whoever fears man will quickly fall. Whoever hopes in the Lord shall be lifted up

26 Many demand the face of the leader. But the judgment of each one proceeds from the Lord
