5A faithful witness will not lie: but a deceitful witness uttereth a lie.
6A scorner seeketh wisdom, and findeth it not: the learning of the wise is easy.
7Go against a foolish man, and he knoweth not the lips of prudence.
8The wisdom of a. discreet man is to understand his way: and the imprudence of fools erreth.
9A fool will laugh at sin, but among the just grace shall abide.
10The heart that knoweth the bitterness of his own soul, in his joy the stranger shall not intermeddle.
11The house of the wicked shall be destroyed: but the tabernacles of the just shall flourish.
12There is a way which seemeth just to a man: but the ends thereof lead to death.
