4. Wrath is cruel, and anger is outrageous,but who is able to stand before envy?
5. Open rebuke is betterthan secret love.
6. Faithful are the wounds of a friend,but the kisses of an enemy are deceitful.
7. The full soul loathes a honeycomb,but to the hungry soul every bitter thing is sweet.
8. As a bird that wanders from her nest,so is a man who wanders from his place.
9. Ointment and perfume rejoice the heart,so does the sweetness of a man’s friend by hearty counsel.
10. Do not forsake your own friend or your father’s friend,nor go into your brother’s house in the day of your calamity;for better is a neighbor who is near than a brother far off.
