21Folly is joy to one who is void of wisdom,but a man of understanding keeps his way straight. 22Where there is no counsel, plans fail;but in a multitude of counselors they are established. 23Joy comes to a man with the reply of his mouth.How good is a word at the right time! 24The path of life leads upward for the wise,to keep him from going downward to Sheol. 25Yahweh will uproot the house of the proud,but he will keep the widow’s borders intact.
