A righteous man understands the hearts of the ungodly: and despises the ungodly for their wickedness.
13 [one who] shuts Ear his from [the] cry of [the] poor also he he will call out and not he will be answered.
He that stops his ears from hearing the poor, himself also shall cry, and there shall be none to hear [him].

A poor man loves mirth, loving wine and oil in abundance;

and a transgressor is the abomination of a righteous man.
19 [is] good To dwell in a land of wilderness more than a woman of (contentions *Q(K)*) and anger.
[It is] better to dwell in a wilderness than with a quarrelsome and talkative and passionate woman.
20 Treasure - desirable and oil [are] in [the] habitation of a wise [person] and a fool a person he swallows up it.
A desirable treasure will rest on the mouth of the wise; but foolish men will swallow it up.
21 [one who] pursues Righteousness and loyalty he finds life righteousness and honor.
The way of righteousness and mercy will find life and glory.
22 A city of warriors he goes up a wise [person] and he brought down [the] strength of trust its.

A horse is prepared for the day of battle; but help is of the Lord.
