10. Cast out a scorner--and contention goeth out, And strife and shame cease.
11. Whoso is loving cleanness of heart, Grace [are] his lips, a king [is] his friend.
12. The eyes of Jehovah have kept knowledge, And He overthroweth the words of the treacherous.
13. The slothful hath said, `A lion [is] without, In the midst of the broad places I am slain.'
14. A deep pit [is] the mouth of strange women, The abhorred of Jehovah falleth there.
15. Folly is bound up in the heart of a youth, The rod of chastisement putteth it far from him.
