10 The mind of a wicked person desires eviland has no consideration for his neighbor.
11 When a mocker is punished, a gullible person becomes wise,and when a wise person is instructed, he gains knowledge.
12 A righteous person wisely considers the house of a wicked person.He throws wicked people into disasters.
13 Whoever shuts his ear to the cry of the poor will call and not be answered.
14 A gift ⌊given⌋ in secret calms anger,and a secret bribe calms great fury.
15 When justice is done, a righteous person is delighted,but troublemakers are terrified.
16 A person who wanders from the way of wise behaviorwill rest in the assembly of the dead.
