5A false witness will be punished; liars won't get away with their lies.
6Many ask favors from important people, and everyone's a friend of the generous.
7If a poor man's relatives can't stand him, how much more will his friends avoid him! He tries to talk with them but they don't listen.
8If you become wise, you have good self-esteem; if you learn good sense you'll be successful.
9A false witness will be punished; people who tell lies will perish.
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.
