9 The foolish will speak mockingly of sin. But grace lingers among the just.
10 The heart that knows the bitterness of its own soul, in its gladness the outsider shall not meddle.
11 The house of the impious will be wiped away. Yet truly, the tabernacles of the just shall spring forth.
12 There is a way which seems just to a man, but its conclusion leads to death.
13 Laughter shall be mingled with sorrow, and mourning occupies the limits of joy.
14 The foolish will be filled up by his own ways. And the good man shall be above him.
15 The innocent trust every word. The astute one considers his own steps. Nothing good will be for the deceitful son. But the wise servant shall act prosperously and his way will be set in order.
