7A satiated soul treadeth down a honeycomb, And [to] a hungry soul every bitter thing [is] sweet.
8As a bird wandering from her nest, So [is] a man wandering from his place.
9Ointment and perfume rejoice the heart, And the sweetness of one`s friend -- from counsel of the soul.
10Thine own friend, and the friend of thy father, forsake not, And the house of thy brother enter not In a day of thy calamity, Better [is] a near neighbour than a brother afar off.
11Be wise, my son, and rejoice my heart. And I return my reproacher a word.
12The prudent hath seen the evil, he is hidden, The simple have passed on, they are punished.
13Take his garment, when a stranger hath been surety, And for a strange woman pledge it.
