7 All the relatives of the poor hate them;even more, their friends stay far from them.When they pursue them with words, they aren’t there.
8 Those who acquire good sense love themselves;those who keep understanding find success.
9 False witnesses won’t go unpunished,and liars will perish.
10 Luxury isn’t fitting for a fool;even less so for a servant to rule over princes.
11 Insightful people restrain their anger;their glory is to ignore an offense.
12 A raging king roars like a lion;his favor is like the dew on the grass.
13 A foolish son is a disaster to his father;a contentious wife is like constant dripping.
