10In the prosperitie of the righteous the citie reioyceth, and when the wicked perish, there is ioye.
11By the blessing of the righteous, the citie is exalted: but it is subuerted by the mouth of the wicked.
12He that despiseth his neighbour, is destitute of wisedome: but a man of vnderstanding will keepe silence.
13Hee that goeth about as a slanderer, discouereth a secret: but hee that is of a faithfull heart concealeth a matter.
14Where no counsell is, the people fall: but where many counsellers are, there is health.
15Hee shall be sore vexed, that is suretie for a stranger, and he that hateth suretiship, is sure.
16A gracious woman atteineth honour, and the strong men atteine riches.
17Hee that is mercifull, rewardeth his owne soule: but he that troubleth his own flesh, is cruel.
18The wicked worketh a deceitful worke: but hee that soweth righteousnes, shall receiue a sure rewarde.
