20He that giveth heed to the wordH1697 shall findH4672 goodH2896; and whoso confideth in Jehovah, happy is he.

21The wiseH2450 in heartH3820 is calledH7121 intelligent, and the sweetnessH4986 of the lipsH8193 increaseth learning.

22Wisdom is a fountainH4726 of lifeH2416 for him that hath it; but the instruction of foolsH191 is follyH200.

23The heartH3820 of the wiseH2450 maketh his mouthH6310 intelligent, and upon his lipsH8193 increaseth learning.

24Pleasant wordsH561 are [as] a honeycomb, sweetH4966 to the soulH5315, and health for the bonesH6106.
