from those who live with integrity.

Never let loyalty and faithfulness leave you.

Tie them around your neck;

but gives grace to the humble.

a wayward woman with her flattering talk.

but if someone looks for trouble, it will come to him.

than a fattened ox with hatred.

don't deny them to me before I die:

“For there will no longer be any false vision or flattering divination within the house of Israel.
