12A man full of pestilence loveth not him that reproveth him; and he goeth not to wise men.
13A joyful heart maketh glad the face; the spirit is cast down in the mourning of soul.
14The heart of a wise man seeketh teaching; and the mouth of fools is fed with unknowing.
15All the days of a poor man be evil; a secure soul is a continual feast.
16Better is a little with the dread of the Lord, than many treasures and unfillable.
17It is better to be called to worts with charity, than with hatred to a calf made fat.
18A wrathful man raiseth chidings; he that is patient, assuageth chidings that were raised.
