6 - Many honour the person of him that is mighty, and are friends of him that giveth gifts.

7 - The brethren of the poor man hate him: moreover also his friends have departed far from him. He that followeth after words only, shall have nothing.

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.

21 - There are many thoughts in the heart of a man: but the will of the Lord shall stand firm.

22 - A needy man is merciful: and better is the poor than the lying man.

23 - The fear of the Lord is unto life: and he shall abide in the fulness without being visited with evil.

24 - The slothful hideth his hand under his armpit, and will not so much as bring it to his mouth.

25 - The wicked man being scourged, the fool shall be wiser: but if thou rebuke a wise man, he will understand discipline.

28 - An unjust witness scorneth judgment: and the mouth of the wicked devoureth iniquity.

29 - Judgments are prepared for scorners: and striking hammers for the bodies of fools.
