6 Blessings are on the head of the righteous, but the mouth of the wicked conceals violence.
7 The memory of the righteous is a blessing, but the name of the wicked will rot.
8 The wise of heart will receive commandments, but a babbling fool will come to ruin.
I've mentioned the practical blessings that wisdom (wealth and long life) and submission brings. There are also benefits in community respect. The life you live determines how you are remembered. The last verse hints at what a "righteous" looks like. Heading good commands.
