12Hope prolonged is making the heart sick, And a tree of life is the coming desire.
13Whoso is despising the Word is destroyed for it, And whoso is fearing the Command is repayed.
14The law of the wise is a fountain of life, To turn aside from snares of death.
15Good understanding giveth grace, And the way of the treacherous is hard.
16Every prudent one dealeth with knowledge, And a fool spreadeth out folly.
17A wicked messenger falleth into evil, And a faithful ambassador is healing.
18Whoso is refusing instruction — poverty and shame, And whoso is observing reproof is honoured.
19A desire accomplished is sweet to the soul, And an abomination to fools is: Turn from evil.
20Whoso is walking with wise men is wise, And a companion of fools suffereth evil.
21Evil pursueth sinners, And good recompenseth the righteous.
22A good man causeth sons' sons to inherit, And laid up for the righteous is the sinner's wealth.
23Abundance of food — the tillage of the poor, And substance is consumed without judgment.
24Whoso is sparing his rod is hating his son, And whoso is loving him hath hastened him chastisement.
25The righteous is eating to the satiety of his soul, And the belly of the wicked lacketh!
