13The delight of kings are righteous lips, And whoso is speaking uprightly he loveth,
14The fury of a king is messengers of death, And a wise man pacifieth it.
15In the light of a king's face is life, And his good-will is as a cloud of the latter rain.
16To get wisdom — how much better than gold, And to get understanding to be chosen than silver!
17A highway of the upright is, 'Turn from evil,' Whoso is preserving his soul is watching his way.
18Before destruction is pride, And before stumbling — a haughty spirit.'
19Better is humility of spirit with the poor, Than to apportion spoil with the proud.
20The wise in any matter findeth good, And whoso is trusting in Jehovah, O his happiness.
21To the wise in heart is called, 'Intelligent,' And sweetness of lips increaseth learning.
22A fountain of life is understanding to its possessors, The instruction of fools is folly.
23The heart of the wise causeth his mouth to act wisely, And by his lips he increaseth learning,
24Sayings of pleasantness are a honeycomb, Sweet to the soul, and healing to the bone.
25There is a way right before a man, And its latter end — ways of death.
26A labouring man hath laboured for himself, For his mouth hath caused him to bend over it.
27A worthless man is preparing evil, And on his lips — as a burning fire.
28A froward man sendeth forth contention, A tale-bearer is separating a familiar friend.
29A violent man enticeth his neighbour, And hath causeth him to go in a way not good.
