10 Have you heard a rumour? Let it die with you. Be brave! It won't make you explode.
11 A foolish person trying to keep a secret suffers like a woman in labour.
12 Whenever he hears a secret, it's like an arrow stuck in his leg.
13 If you hear that a friend has done something wrong, ask him about it. Maybe it isn't true. If it is true, he won't do it again.
14 If you hear that a neighbour has said something he shouldn't, ask him about it. Maybe he didn't say it. If he did, he won't say it again.
15 If you hear something bad about a friend, ask him about it. It might be a lie. Don't believe everything you hear.
16 A person may say something carelessly and not really mean it. Everyone has sinned in this way at one time or another.
