6Many will entreat the favour of a ruler, and everyone is a friend to a man who gives gifts.
7All the relatives of the poor shun him; how much more do his friends avoid him! He pursues them with pleas, but they are gone.
8He who gets wisdom loves his own soul. He who keeps understanding shall find good.
9A false witness shall not be unpunished. He who utters lies shall perish.
10Delicate living is not appropriate for a fool, much less for a servant to have rule over princes.
11The discretion of a man makes him slow to anger. It is his glory to overlook an offence.
12The king’s wrath is like the roaring of a lion, but his favour is like dew on the grass.
13A foolish son is the calamity of his father. A wife’s quarrels are a continual dripping.
14House and riches are an inheritance from fathers, but a prudent wife is from the LORD.
