10It's not right for stupid people to live in luxury, and it's even worse for a slave to rule over leaders.
11If you have good sense you'll be slow to get angry; you gain respect by forgiving wrongs.
12When a king gets angry, he sounds like a roaring lion; but his kindness is as soft as dew on the grass.
13A stupid son makes his father miserable, and an argumentative wife is like dripping that never stops.
14You inherit a house and wealth from your father, but a sensible wife is a gift from the Lord.
15Lazy people are often fast asleep, but idleness means they're hungry.
16Keep the commandments, and you'll live; despise them and you'll die.
17If you're kind to the poor, you're lending to the Lord, and he will repay you well for what you've done.
18Discipline your son while there's still hope, but don't kill him.
19People who often get angry have to pay the penalty; if you help them, you'll have to do it again.
20Listen to advice and accept instruction so that you'll eventually become wise.
21Human beings make many plans in their minds, but the final decision is the Lord's.
22The most desirable thing in anyone is trustworthy love; it is better to be poor than a liar.
