8. But he that possesseth a mind, loveth his own soul, and he that keepeth prudence shall find good things.
9. A false witness shall not be unpunished: and he that speaketh lies, shall perish.
10. Delicacies are not seemly for a fool: nor for a servant to have rule over princes.
11. The learning of a man is known by patience and his glory is to pass over wrongs.
12. As the roaring of a lion, so also is the anger of a king: and his cheerfulness as the dew upon the grass.
13. A foolish son is the grief of his father: and a wrangling wife is like a roof continually dropping through.
14. House and riches are given by parents: but a prudent wife is properly from the Lord.
15. Slothfulness casteth into a deep sleep, and an idle soul shall suffer hunger.
