27 ^aThe fear of the Lord is a fountain of life,
To turn one away from the snares of death.

But in the lack of people is the downfall of a prince.

29 ^aHe who is slow to wrath has great understanding,
But he who is¹ impulsive exalts folly.

30 A sound heart is life to the body,
But ^aenvy is ^brottenness to the bones.

But he who honors Him has mercy on the needy.

32 The wicked is banished in his wickedness,
But ^athe righteous has a refuge in his death.
