9A false witness shall not be unpunished; and whoever shall kindle mischief shall perish by it.
10Delight does not suit a fool, nor is it seemly if a servant should begin to rule with haughtiness.
11A merciful man is longsuffering; and his triumph overtakes transgressors.
12The threatening of a king is like the roaring of a lion; but as dew on the grass, so is his favour.
