7 All the relatives of the poor shun him: How much more do his friends avoid him! He pursues them with pleas, but they are gone.
8 He who gets wisdom loves his own soul. He who keeps understanding shall find good.
9 A false witness shall not be unpunished. He who utters lies shall perish.
10 Delicate living is not appropriate for a fool, Much less for a servant to have rule over princes.
11 The discretion of a man makes him slow to anger. It is his glory to overlook an offense.
12 The king`s wrath is like the roaring of a lion, But his favor is like dew on the grass.
13 A foolish son is the calamity of his father. A wife`s quarrels are a continual dripping.
