11Wealth gotten by vanity will become small; But he who gathereth it into the hand increaseth it.
12Hope deferred maketh the heart sick; But the desire accomplished is a tree of life.
13He that despiseth the word shall be destroyed; But he who revereth the commandment shall be rewarded.
14The instruction of the wise is a fountain of life; By it men escape from the snares of death.
15A good understanding winneth favor; But the way of transgressors is hard.
