9 Whoever conceals an offense seeks friendships. Whoever repeats the words of another separates allies.
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.
