18. A man void of understanding gives pledge, and becomes surety in the presence of his neighbor.
19. He who loves transgression loves strife: and he who exalts his gate seeks destruction.
20. He that has a crooked heart finds no good: and he that has a perverse tongue falls into calamity.
21. He that begets a fool does it to his sorrow: and the father of a fool has no joy.
22. A merry heart does good like a medicine: but a broken spirit dries the bones.
