2A wise man's understanding is at his right hand; but a fool's understanding at his left.
3Yea also, when a fool walketh by the way, his understanding faileth him, and he saith to every one that he is a fool.
4If the spirit of the ruler rise up against thee, leave not thy place; for gentleness allayeth great offences.
5There is an evil which I have seen under the sun, like an error which proceedeth from a ruler:
6Folly is set on great heights, and the rich sit in low place.
7I have seen servants upon horses, and princes walking as servants upon the earth.
