16A 1gracious woman attains honor, And ruthless men attain riches.17A 2merciful person does 3himself good, But the cruel person 4does himself harm.18A wicked person earns deceptive wages, But one who 5sows righteousness gets a true reward.19One who is steadfast in 6righteousness attains life, But 7one who pursues evil attains his own death.
