18 Mas o caminho dos justos é como a luz brilhante, que vai, e ilumina até o dia [ficar claro] por completo.

19 O caminho dos perversos é como a escuridão; não sabem nem em que tropeçam.

21 Não as deixes ficarem longe de teus olhos; guarda-as no meio de teu coração.

22 Porque são vida para aqueles que as encontram; e saúde para todo o seu corpo.
