2 You should not contend with a wealthy man, lest perhaps he may bring an action against you.
3 For gold and silver have destroyed many, and have reached and corrupted even the hearts of kings.
4 You should not quarrel with a man who is full of words, for you should not cast wood upon his fire.
5 You should not confide in an ignorant man, lest he speak evil about your family.
6 You should not despise a man who turns himself away from sin, nor reproach him with it. Remember that we are all subject to correction.
7 You should not spurn a man in his old age. For we are all subject to growing old.
8 Do not be willing to rejoice at the death of your enemy, knowing that we all die, and that we do not want others rejoice over us.
