Before · Proverbs 19:22–23

22That which makes a man to be desired is his kindness. A poor man is better than a liar. 23The fear of the LORD leads to life, then contentment; he rests and will not be touched by trouble.

24The sluggard buries his hand in the dish; he will not so much as bring it to his mouth again.

After · Proverbs 19:25–26

25Flog a scoffer, and the simple will learn prudence; rebuke one who has understanding, and he will gain knowledge. 26He who robs his father and drives away his mother is a son who causes shame and brings reproach.
