4Riches gather many friends: but the poore is separated from his neighbour.
5A false witnes shall not be vnpunished: and he that speaketh lyes, shall not escape.
6Many reuerence the face of the prince, and euery man is friend to him that giueth giftes.
7All the brethren of the poore doe hate him: howe much more will his friends depart farre from him? though hee be instant with wordes, yet they will not.
8He that possesseth vnderstanding, loueth his owne soule, and keepeth wisdome to finde goodnesse.
9A false witnes shall not be vnpunished: and he that speaketh lyes, shall perish.
10Pleasure is not comely for a foole, much lesse for a seruant to haue rule ouer princes.
11The discretion of man deferreth his anger: and his glory is to passe by an offence.
