8Wise people heed good instruction/advice, but people who talk foolishly will ruin themselves.
9Honest people will be safe, but others (OR, God) will find out those who are dishonest.
10Those who signal wihth their eyes that they are about to do something that is wrong cause trouble, but those who rebuke others truthfully cause them to be peaceful.
11What righteous people say MTY is like a fountain that ◄gives life/enables people to live many years► MET, but what wicked people say MTY hides the fact that they intend to act violently.
12When we hate others, it causes quarrels, but if we love others, we forgive them for the wrong things that they do.
13Those who have good sense say MTY what is wise, but people who do not have good sense must be punished.
14Wise people continue to learn all that they can, but when foolish people speak, they soon cause trouble.
15The wealth that rich people have protects them like a city is protected by a strong wall around it MET, but people who are poor suffer much because they have no one to help them.
16If you are righteous, your reward will be a good life, but all that sinful people gain is to sin more.
17Those who pay attention when others try to ◄correct them/teach them what they are doing that is wrong► will live ◄happily/for many years►; but those who reject being rebuked will not find the road to life (OR, cause others to go astray).
