4 When there are no oxen, the stall is clean,but when there is a strong bull, there is abundant produce.
5 A truthful witness doesn’t lie,but a false witness spews lies.
6 A mocker searches for wisdom and gets none,but knowledge comes quickly to the intelligent.
7 Stay away from fools,for you won’t learn wise speech there.
8 By their wisdom the prudent understand their way,but the stupidity of fools deceives them.
9 Fools mock a compensation offering,but favor is with those who do right.
10 The heart knows its own distress;another person can’t share its joy.
