1 A drunken workerwon’t become rich,and whoever neglects the little thingswill fail little by little.
2 Wine and womenwill mislead an intelligent person,and the one who has sex with prostitutes will become more reckless.
3 Decay and worms will possess him,and his reckless soul will be carried away.
4 Those who trust others too quicklyhave empty heads,and those who sin injure themselves.
5 Those who rejoice in wickednesswill be condemned.
6 And those who are reticent to speakdiminish wickedness.
