11At the blessing of the upright a city shall be exalted.
12A man void of understanding sneers at his fellow citizens: but a sensible man is quiet.
13A double-tongued man discloses the secret counsels of an assembly: but he that is faithful in spirit conceals matters.
14They that have no guidance fall like leaves: but in much counsel there is safety.
15A bad man does harm wherever he meets a just man: and he hates the sound of safety.
16A gracious wife brings glory to her husband: but a woman hating righteousness is a theme of dishonor. The slothful come to lack: but the diligent support themselves with wealth.
17A merciful man does good to his own soul: but the merciless destroys his own body.
