²⁵ Whoso is proud in soul stirreth up contention, And whoso is trusting on Jehovah is made fat.

¹⁸ A man of fury stirreth up contention, And the slow to anger appeaseth strife.

²⁵ A liberal soul is made fat, And whoso is watering, he also is watered.

⁶ but it is great gain -- the piety with contentment;

⁴ The soul of the slothful is desiring, and hath not. And the soul of the diligent is made fat.

⁷ Blessed `is' the man who trusteth in Jehovah, And whose confidence hath been Jehovah.

⁸ And hath been as a tree planted by waters, And by a rivulet he sendeth forth his roots, And he doth not see when heat cometh, And his leaf hath been green, And in a year of dearth he is not sorrowful, Nor doth he cease from making fruit.

¹¹ And Jehovah doth lead thee continually, And hath satisfied in drought thy soul, And thy bones He armeth, And thou hast been as a watered garden, And as an outlet of waters, whose waters lie not.

²⁵ Fear of man causeth a snare, And the confident in Jehovah is set on high.

²² An angry man stirreth up contention, And a furious man is multiplying transgression.

¹⁰ Cast out a scorner -- and contention goeth out, And strife and shame cease.

²⁴ Proud, haughty, scorner `is' his name, Who is working in the wrath of pride.

³⁰ The light of the eyes rejoiceth the heart, A good report maketh fat the bone.

¹⁰ A vain man through pride causeth debate, And with the counselled `is' wisdom.

¹² Hatred awaketh contentions, And over all transgressions love covereth.

¹² Jehovah of Hosts! O the happiness of a man trusting in Thee.
