10 A correction benefits more with a wise man, than a hundred stripes with a fool.
11 The evil one continually seeks conflicts. But a cruel Angel shall be sent against him.
12 It is more expedient to meet a bear robbed of her young, than the foolish trusting in his own folly.
13 Whoever repays evil for good, evil shall not withdraw from his house.
14 Whoever releases the water is the head of the conflict. And just before he suffers contempt, he abandons judgment.
15 Those who justify the impious, and those who condemn the just, both are abominable with God.
16 What does it profit the foolish to have riches, when he is not able to buy wisdom? Whoever makes his house high seeks ruin. And whoever shuns learning shall fall into evils.
