17 Whoso is lending [to] Jehovah is favouring the poor, And  his deed He repayeth to him.
         
                                
                        18 Chastise thy son, for there is hope, And to put him to  death lift not up thy soul.
         
                                
                        19 A man of great wrath is bearing punishment, For, if thou  dost deliver, yet again thou dost add.
         
                                
                        20 Hear counsel and receive instruction, So that thou art  wise in thy latter end.
         
                                
                        21 Many [are] the purposes in a man`s heart, And the counsel  of Jehovah it standeth.
         
                                
                        22 The desirableness of a man [is] his kindness, And better  [is] the poor than a liar.
         
                                
                        23 The fear of Jehovah [is] to life, And satisfied he  remaineth -- he is not charged with evil.
