16. Take his garment that is surety for a stranger; And hold him in pledge that is surety for foreigners.
17. Bread of falsehood is sweet to a man; But afterwards his mouth shall be filled with gravel.
18. Every purpose is established by counsel; And by wise guidance make thou war.
19. He that goeth about as a tale-bearer revealeth secrets; Therefore company not with him that openeth wide his lips.
20. Whoso curseth his father or his mother, His lamp shall be put out in blackness of darkness.
