11A city shall be enhanced by the blessing of just men; and it shall be destroyed by the mouth of wicked men. (A city shall be enhanced by the blessing of the righteous; and it shall be destroyed by the words of the wicked.)
12He that despiseth his friend, is needy in heart; but a prudent man shall be still. (He who despiseth his friend is foolish; but a man of understanding shall be silent.)
13He that goeth guilefully, showeth privates, (or He who goeth deceitfully, telleth secrets); but he that is faithful, covereth the private (matter) of a friend.
14Where a governor is not, the people shall fall; but health is, where be many counsels. (Without a leader, or good governance, the people shall fall; but there is victory or but there is salvation, or deliverance, where there be many counsellors, or much planning, or good advice.)
15He that maketh faith, that is, (an) obligation, for a stranger, shall be tormented with evil; but he that escheweth snares, shall be secure.
16A gracious woman shall find glory (or A gracious woman shall receive honour); and strong men shall have riches.
